(
• a statement that Imperata grasslands are a final stage of land
degradation and are very difficult to recover for more valuable
land uses is not true. Neither is it true that Imperata
grasslands always have low levels of available nutrients, high
acidity, and low cation exchange capacity.
• Imperata grasslands appear to be permanent because of
human interference, especially through burning, and because
so far few attempts have been made to sustainable
rehabilitation.
• “Synergy with nature”, which combines cooperation and
respect, is the best approach to restore Imperata grassland to
secondary forest”
