いっちんクラブは「堺自然ふれあいの森」の「樹林管理活動,環境学習活動,農業体験活動や生き物調査」等を行っているNPO法人です。堺いきいき市民大学の体験講座として樹林管理活動の「間伐と下草刈り」体験をしました。「堺自然ふれあいの森」の樹木は種まきや植林が行われていない森林で,雑木林が時間をかけて森林に移行したものです。「ふれあいの森」では、周辺環境を踏まえ「自然環境の保護,復元と活用」を目指し、里山の保全と生物多様性の保護、リクレーションや教育の場としての利用を目標とされていました。
里山の管理では雑木林の伐採が基本です。伐採されない雑木林は再生サイクルが行われず林が若返りません。地面に落ちた葉が厚く積もり、落ち葉の下に菌の層が発達し「種」が発芽し難くなります。その為、落ち葉かきは欠かせません特に冬が適しています。
森林の復元再生には萌芽(ほうが)の生育に支障となる雑草木を取除く事です。これは保全する草木や樹木が再生するまで繰返し行なわれます。下草刈りは春から夏が適しており、ネザサの繁殖している雑木林は「光」が入り難く成る為、地面と平行になる程度に刈込む必要があります。

ネザサ刈り後

伐採した切株からは翌春たくさんの萌芽枝(ひこばえ)が出てどんどん成長します。ひこばえ(萌芽枝)は太くて丈夫なのもを残し本数を減らします(減らす事を「もやかき」と言い秋から冬が適しています)。

伐採では伐倒の方向にロープで誘導し倒す側に「受け口」を先に作り反対側に追い口のノコギリを入れて行きます。倒れそうに成ると「ビッキビッキ」「バッキバッキ」等の前兆を示す音が発し徐々に倒れて行きます。

    I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own weblog and was wondering what all is needed to get set up? I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny? I’m not very web smart so I’m not 100% certain. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks

    Hi just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few of the pictures aren’t loading properly. I’m not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I’ve tried it in two different internet browsers and both show the same outcome.

    You really make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something which I think I would never understand. It seems too complicated and extremely broad for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I’ll try to get the hang of it!

    In this grand pattern of things you receive a B+ just for effort. Where you actually misplaced everybody was in all the facts. You know, as the maxim goes, the devil is in the details… And it couldn’t be more accurate here. Having said that, allow me inform you precisely what did deliver the results. Your article (parts of it) can be extremely powerful and this is possibly why I am making an effort to comment. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. Second, although I can see the leaps in logic you come up with, I am definitely not convinced of exactly how you seem to connect the ideas that help to make the final result. For right now I will, no doubt subscribe to your issue however trust in the foreseeable future you actually link your facts better.

    I do believe all the ideas you’ve presented on your post. They are very convincing and will certainly work. Nonetheless, the posts are very brief for starters. May you please lengthen them a little from subsequent time? Thanks for the post.
