(HBO) - Da Bac district has a total forest area of 47,143.24 ha, including 31,458.04 ha of natural forest and 15,685.20 ha of planted areas. In recent years, afforestation has helped generate jobs and bring high incomes for local people.

Plant nurseries in Da Bac district ensure sufficient supply of saplings for afforestation in 2020.

Afforestation is carried out in all communes and towns in the district, mainly in Tu Ly and Toan Son communes and Da Bac town. The district has planned to plant trees on 800 hectares of forest land this year. Some kinds of trees are selected for afforestation through research on soil and climate, such as acacia, doi, mo and mock Bodhi trees.

To prepare for the implementation of the 2020 afforestation plan, the district has strengthened communications work to provide locals with information on the role, effect, meaning and economic efficiency of afforestation for the environment and life.

Shortly after the completion of forest exploitation in 2019, forest rangers guided people to clear vegetation. The district’s Division of Agriculture and Rural Development also guided communes and towns to register afforestation area so that the district mapped out a plan on saplings to serve the work when conditions are favourable. 

Besides, the district has provided training on planting techniques with the application of science and technology for farmers.

After the Lunar New Year, afforestation took place throughout the district with the launch of tree-planting festival. The movement received warm response from officials, staff and locals in the locality. On the occasion, the district planted 51,150 perennial trees of all kinds. The whole district has to date planted 100 ha of forest. The district targets to complete the 2020 forestation plan by the end of September./.
