PlantScrew

Franziska Dehm & Dominic Hahn | HfG Schwäbisch Gmünd

PlantScrew is an ergonomic forestry tool that effectively uproots seedlings without damaging the roots. A healthy root boosts the seedlings’ chances of survival and leads to more effective reforestation. If more seedlings survive planting, more trees can be planted in the future. Forest owners can also use their own resources by transplanting the seedlings, created through natural regeneration, in their own forest.
