The carob is a multipurpose tree, called "King of the Desert" for the various direct and indirect benefits it provides. It is an excellent species for control dunes and counter desertification, mainly for its drought resistance.He is a pioneer in the recovery of soil fertility, for its direct influence on the reduction of erosion, and soil degradation, as well as for their ability to fixation of nitrogen from the air and the addition of organic matter. Moreover its roots protect groundwater. Besides its used for human consumption. carob fruit, shampoos, wine, chicha, flour for bakery, candies, flavors, and carob porridge is obtained, the pods are used for the preparation of coffee, naturopathic medicine etc. It contains high rates of sugars, proteins, minerals, and vitamin B complex fibers. Furthermore its used for human consumption. The Carob fruit is used for shampoos, wine, chicha, flour for bakery, candies, flavors, and carob porridge. The pods are used for the preparation of coffee, and naturopathic medicine etc. They contain high rates of sugars, proteins, minerals, vitamin B complexes and fiber. Its fruit has a high nutritional quality. It contains an average of 9 to 14% protein, 50% nitrogen-free extract, 20% fiber, 3% ash and good content of vitamins, minerals and carbohydrates. The foliage or "fist" from the process of defoliation, is an excellent forage for sheep and small animals.
Forests are ecosystems, rich in renewable natural resources that can provide a wide range of economic social and environmental benefits. Therefore it is necessary to ensure their conservation.

Reforestation is a silviculture activity, intended to repopulate areas that have been deforested.Of 5,887 hectares that make up the historic sanctuary Pomac forest, have been preyed upon by traffickers, invaders and loggers 2000 hectares of land, of which 800 hectares belong to archaeological remains and 1,200 hectares of degraded forests, plundered. From 2010 have been carried out reforestation to replenish the forest Pomac with community participation.
The reforestation
- Protection and conservation of ecosystems - Maintenance of forest biodiversity - Sustainable use of forest products for productive activities such as beekeeping, carobproduction, breeding sheep and small animals - Improvement in air quality - Dampens the harmful effects of climate change - Protection and improvement of the soil from erosion - Increases fertility and soil quality, as well as the fixed nitrogen - Hydrologic cycle regulator - Landscape conservation - Improves conditions and increases the attractiveness to develop rural
tourism
