Project Description

The sustainable afforestation project in Cự Đồng commune, Thanh Sơn district, Phú Thọ province, is being implemented on a 25-hectare area with a combination of two main tree species: Dalbergia tonkinensis and pine. Since its acquisition from the previous owner, the project has undergone two years of development, transitioning from short-term forestry to long-term sustainable forest planting. In addition to planting Dalbergia tonkinensis and pine, the forest owner plans to interplant medicinal herbs under the forest canopy in the future. With support from local authorities, the project not only focuses on carbon sequestration but also brings multifaceted value to the environment and the community, including biodiversity protection, soil quality improvement, and the creation of stable livelihoods for local people.

Stakeholders and local communities involved in the project

The project involves several key stakeholders, including the forest owner, the Thanh Sơn District Department of Forestry, and the Thanh Sơn District Forest Protection Unit. These local authorities play a vital role by providing policy support, technical guidance, and ensuring compliance with forest protection regulations. Additionally, the project directly engages the local community by creating stable jobs for over 10 local workers, who participate in forest care, protection, and management. The project is also positioned as a model for sustainable forest development, with the aim of promoting broader forest conservation efforts in the region.

Project Goals

The main goal of the project is to absorb CO2, contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions and supporting Vietnam’s climate change commitments. Additionally, the project aims to conserve and restore the forest ecosystem, enhancing biodiversity. By providing stable employment for local people and interplanting medicinal herbs under the forest canopy, the project brings economic and social benefits, improving livelihoods and raising awareness of sustainable development.

Co-benefits

The sustainable afforestation project in Cự Đồng commune not only aims to absorb CO2 and reduce greenhouse gas emissions but also brings several co-benefits for the environment and local community. Enhancing biodiversity: The interplanting of species like Dalbergia tonkinensis, pine, and medicinal herbs under the forest canopy creates a diverse ecosystem where various plant and animal species can thrive, contributing to improved ecological balance in the region. Soil protection and improvement: Long-term tree species like Dalbergia tonkinensis and pine help increase water retention, prevent soil erosion, and improve soil fertility. The planting of medicinal herbs under the canopy helps maintain moisture and protects the topsoil from the impacts of rain and wind.
