Disaster prone countries, like the Philippines, are affected by landslides, mudslides, widespread flooding which are causing significant destruction and damages to homes, community buildings, communications, infrastructure, and agriculture. Forest enrichment is a good practice option, especially for mountainous regions to counter these issues. The cultivation of pomelo for forest enrichment addresses slow on setting climate change impacts. The practice has co-benefits to reduce risk and impact of climate variability and extreme weather events with additional potential to contribute to mitigation by reducing emissions and enhancing carbon sinks. Trees, such as pomelo, intercept water, store some of it, and reduce storm runoff and the possibility of soil erosion. Radiant energy from the sun is absorbed or deflected by leaves on deciduous trees in the summer. It is also a strategy of improving the present stock of a logged-over forest to improve the density, volume, and species composition using high value producing fruit trees species.
