The Public Institute of Krka National Park participates in the LIFE CONTRA Ailanthus project, funded through the LIFE Programme, as a project partner.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development and the European Commission have signed an agreement for the LIFE CONTRA Ailanthus project, aimed at establishing effective measures for the control of the invasive tree species Ailanthus altissima. The total value of the project is HRK 19,4 million and it is co-funded by the European Union at a rate of 60%.<\/p>\n

The project is funded through the LIFE Programme, the EU\u2019s financial instrument supporting environmental, nature conservation, and climate action. It is implemented by the Institute for Environmental and Nature protection of the Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development in cooperation with project partners: Public Institute of Krka National Park, Public Institute for the Management of Protected Natural Areas of the Dubrovnik-Neretva County, and Vrtlar d.o.o. The anticipated time frame for the project activities is four and a half years.<\/p>\n

Pajasen (Ailanthus altissima<\/em> (Mill.) Swingle) stablo je porijeklom iz isto\u010dne Azije, koje se od 18. stolje\u0107a sadilo diljem svijeta za potrebe hortikulture, a danas se smatra jednom od najinvazivnijih biljnih vrsta u Europi. Pajasen istiskuje zavi\u010dajnu vegetaciju i smanjuje bioraznolikost, \u0161tetnik je u poljoprivredi, izaziva alergiju kod ljudi te uni\u0161tava spomenike kulturne ba\u0161tine i druge gra\u0111evine izuzetno jakim korijenovim sustavom. Vrsta se zbog negativnih utjecaja na bioraznolikost, gospodarstvo i zdravlje ljudi nalazi i na popisu invazivnih stranih vrsta koje izazivaju zabrinutost u Europskoj uniji. U Hrvatskoj je pajasen \u0161iroko rasprostranjen, a posebno ugro\u017eava za\u0161ti\u0107ena stani\u0161ta i vrste u mediteranskoj regiji.<\/p>\n

The project aims to introduce measures for the control of the invasive tree of heaven species in the Mediterranean region in Croatia: in two Croatian ecological network areas (HR2000918 Wider area of the Krka National Park, and HR2001364 SEE part of the Pelje\u0161ac Peninsula) and in cities with a historic urban core (Ston, Mali Ston, and Dubrovnik).<\/p>\n

Improvement of the conservation status of Natura 2000 habitat types, preservation of cultural heritage, prevention of the further spread of the invasive alien species, and development of a national protocol are the main expected outcomes of the LIFE CONTRA Ailanthus project. In addition, the project also aims to enhance alien species management capacity and raise public awareness of the negative impact of invasive species at the national level.<\/p>\n
