Cork
Definition: Cork
Cork: Cork noun a protective outer layer that forms part of the bark in woody plants, taking many years to regrow once stripped (NOTE: It is used, among other things, for bottle corks, fishing net floats, and flooring, but cork oaks are now attracting conservation interest). COMMENT: Cork is harvested by cutting large sections of bark off a cork oak tree, while still leaving enough bark on the tree to ensure that it will continue to grow. Managing cork production provides sustainable material and supports conservation efforts.
