Download or read book Financing household tree plantations in Vietnam Current programmes and future options written by Thomas Sikor and published by CIFOR. This book was released on 2011-01-11 with total page 4 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Households require access to external finance to establish and manage commercial tree plantations. The Government of Vietnam has recognised the benefits of giving households access to external finance for planting trees. State reforestation programmes and the state-owned banking system offer households exceptional access to financial support. Reforestation programmes and state-owned banks currently use different kinds of financial mechanisms to provide finance to households. The financial mechanisms perform differently with regards to their sustainability, leakage, access, cost to households, risk to households and match with finance requirements. No mechanism performs better than the other mechanisms on all criteria. Vietnam’s policymakers thus face critical trade-offs when they design finance programmes in support of household tree plantations. The first trade-off is between financial sustainability and the provision of accessible, affordable and low-risk support. A mechanism that provides easily accessible support at low cost and low risk entails transaction costs that make the programme dependant on continuing subsidies. The second trade-off is between leakage and financial sustainability. A mechanism that includes systematic monitoring for avoiding leakage incurs transaction costs that reduce its sustainability. The interests of Vietnam’s tree-planting households and the Government of Vietnam may be best served by a loan-based approach coupled with suitable monitoring of loan use.
Download or read book Regreening the Bare Hills written by David Lamb and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-10-14 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Regreening the Bare Hills: Tropical Forest Restoration in the Asia-Pacific Region, David Lamb explores how reforestation might be carried out both to conserve biological diversity and to improve the livelihoods of the rural poor. While both issues have attracted considerable attention in recent years, this book takes a significant step, by integrating ecological and silvicultural knowledge within the context of the social and economic issues that can determine the success or failure of tropical forest landscape restoration. Describing new approaches to the reforestation of degraded lands in the Asia-Pacific tropics, the book reviews current approaches to reforestation throughout the region, paying particular attention to those which incorporate native species – including in multi-species plantations. It presents case studies from across the Asia-Pacific region and discusses how the silvicultural methods needed to manage these ‘new’ plantations will differ from conventional methods. It also explores how reforestation might be made more attractive to smallholders and how trade-offs between production and conservation are most easily made at a landscape scale. The book concludes with a discussion of how future forest restoration may be affected by some current ecological and socio-economic trends now underway. The book represents a valuable resource for reforestation managers and policy makers wishing to promote these new silvicultural approaches, as well as for conservationists, development experts and researchers with an interest in forest restoration. Combining a theoretical-research perspective with practical aspects of restoration, the book will be equally valuable to practitioners and academics, while the lessons drawn from these discussions will have relevance elsewhere throughout the tropics.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forests Are Gold examines the management of Vietnam's forests in the tumultuous twentieth century�from French colonialism to the recent transition to market-oriented economics�as the country united, prospered, and transformed people and landscapes. Forest policy has rarely been about ecology or conservation for nature�s sake, but about managing citizens and society, a process Pamela McElwee terms �environmental rule.� Untangling and understanding these practices and networks of rule illuminates not just thorny issues of environmental change, but also the birth of Vietnam itself.

Download or read book Handbook of Forest Resource Economics written by Shashi Kant and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-04-03 with total page 825 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is increasingly recognized that the economic value of forests is not merely the production of timber. Forests provide other key ecosystem services, such as being sinks for greenhouse gases, hotspots of biodiversity, tourism and recreation. They are also vitally important in preventing soil erosion and controlling water supplies, as well as providing non-timber forest products and supporting the livelihoods of many local people. This handbook provides a detailed, comprehensive and broad coverage of forest economics, including traditional forest economics of timber production, economics of environmental role of forests, and recent developments in forest economics. The chapters are grouped into six parts: fundamental topics in forest resource economics; economics of forest ecosystems; economics of forests, climate change, and bioenergy; economics of risk, uncertainty, and natural disturbances; economics of forest property rights and certification; and emerging issues and developments. Written by leading environmental, forest, and natural resource economists, the book represents a definitive reference volume for students of economics, environment, forestry and natural resource economics and management.
