In Dong Ha City, Quang Tri Province, the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development collaborated with the PFFP project by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF - Vietnam) to conduct consultations with relevant parties to implement the mapping of natural forests in 3 communes: Huong Phung, Huong Viet, and Huong Lap (Huong Hoa District).
The project aims to assist coffee farmers in transitioning from single-crop coffee cultivation to agroforestry.
Approved by the People's Committee of Quang Tri Province under Decision No. 1928/UB-UBND dated August 28, 2023, the project targets to help coffee farmers convert to agroforestry within 4 years by planting additional shade trees for multiple purposes.
It is expected that the project will increase the average income by 40% for about 2,000 coffee farmers participating in the conversion, equivalent to approximately 2,500 ha. Additionally, the project sets goals to support forest owners in 6 communes of Huong Hoa District located within the biological diversity corridor connecting Bac Huong Hoa and Dakrong Conservation Areas to manage, protect, and develop natural forests, particularly focusing on areas severely affected by climate change and human activities.
Currently, the project prioritizes working with forest owners in 3 communes: Huong Phung, Huong Viet, and Huong Lap of Huong Hoa District. The consultation session aimed to assess the current forest management, protection, and development status of forest owners in these 3 surveyed communes.
During the consultation, delegates discussed mapping natural forests managed by forest owners in the surveyed communes related to areas severely affected by climate change and human activities. This will provide information on intervention areas for forest restoration based on data collection and analysis to support the project's intervention planning.
