As the KGBRP rehabilitation appears to be more effective than
the basic rehabilitation at restoring the mangrove ecosystem, it is
possible a similar method could be use in rehabilitation projects
across Southeast Asia, South America, South Asia and Africa in areas
where wave energy is a significant factor affecting mangrove
reestablishment. Any projects should use locally-sourced, inexpensive
material and the rehabilitation technique should be conducted
in a way that enhances natural recruitment, as this study
found it to be the most significant factor in mangrove reestablishment.
