Afforestation of any kind is good, but we can't forget the importance of large, contiguous forest ecosystems too. Segmentation of forest can threaten some species that rely on not being near the edge.

I think that the Miyawaki Method would work just as well to start a large forest. Here's a possible path
* Secure the large area of land
* If your budget is limited, plant a few small areas in the Miyawaki Method to get healthy ecosystems started
* In future years, as you get more money, plant more areas, or just wait for the forest to spread from the Miyawaki areas.
Most of us have a problem with the first step.
If you can't do the first step, large scale foresting efforts are out of your reach, regardless of technique.
