Description
The project aims to establish new sustainable forest plantations and to improve the management and standing volume of existing plantations, with a focus on rare species and high-quality timber trees. The project will protect against erosion and enhance biodiversity. It will cover 74,000 ha in 51 counties of the three provinces Henan, Guangxi and Hainan.
Objectifs
The objective of the project is to support the planting of high-value tree species to establish forest cover on bare and degraded forest lands and improve productivity of existing low-yield forest stands. The plantations are expected to comprise rare, high-value timber tree species, as well as more established well-known timber species. The project imposes environmentally and socially sustainable forest management practices and supports related capacity-building. It is expected to generate income and employment for rural people and reduce rural emigration.
