EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable sight - a bountiful pile of harvested cork bark, stripped from the majestic cork oak trees. The cork oak, native to Spain and Portugal, boasts thick bark that is meticulously removed at regular intervals to obtain precious cork for various purposes such as stoppers, panels, and coverings. This sustainable practice ensures the longevity of these magnificent trees. The image was taken near Tavira in Portugal, capturing the essence of this age-old tradition deeply rooted in the region's history. These resilient trees are initially stripped when they reach 25-30 years old and subsequently every decade thereafter. The process exemplifies an intricate balance between human intervention and nature's generosity. Beyond its aesthetic appeal, this photograph symbolizes the harmonious relationship between forestry practices and environmental preservation. It highlights how responsible land use can sustainably meet our agricultural needs while safeguarding natural resources. As we admire this snapshot captured by Science Photo Library, let us appreciate not only the beauty but also acknowledge the significance of cork harvesting within botany and agriculture. This image serves as a reminder of humanity's ability to coexist with nature respectfully – utilizing its gifts without compromising its integrity or commercializing it excessively.
