The ambitious goals of international initiatives, like the UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration 2020-2030, or the post-2020 target of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) is to achieve restorative management on 30 % of degraded land by 2030. It requires large areas to be returned to natural and semi-natural ecosystems globally, partly with the help of plant species translocations and introductions, mainly with seeding. However, seed provenancing is an actual scientific and practical challenge. We aimed to highlight the synergies and potential mismatches between practice and research in order to enhance future discussions and by that fine-tuning provenancing frameworks.
