The National Institute of Forest Science of the Korea Forest Service (Director Bae Jae-soo) announced the results of Korea's afforestation project to prevent desertification and reduce yellow dust in Northeast Asia, including China and Mongolia, at the 9th Kubuqi Desert held on August 26 and 27.
The Kubuqi International Desert Forum in China has been held every two years since 2007. The forum invites international organizations related to desertification prevention, such as the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD), high-ranking Chinese officials, and experts from each country.
Dr. Park Ki-hyung of the Forest Ecology Research Department of the National Forest Research Institute presented the results of the Korea-China and Korea-Mongolia Desertification Prevention Project since 2000 and the effects of forestation through field research.
After the announcement, Chinese experts and local media, including China's National Forestry Plantation Bureau, expressed a lot of interest and gratitude for Korea's achievements in forestation projects to prevent desertification and long-term monitoring research.
"Korea has been carrying out afforestation projects since the early 2000s to prevent desertification in Northeast Asia. It is necessary to propose more accurate afforestation technology and tree species to new projects by analyzing the current situation, good points and improvements." said Yang Hee-moon. He also noted, "We will continue to establish a long-term monitoring and evaluation system through international joint research with China and Mongolia.”
