|
| 12. PROJECT LOCATION: (Describe the location of the project and its components.) |
|
|
| 13. PROJECT OBJECTIVE: (Describe the major purpose of the project.) |
|
• To enhance forest cover, increase sustainable livelihood opportunities, reduce degradation of natural forests, and support local development by establishing small-scale, private forest plantations
• To initiate the piloting of small-scale private forest plantations and prepare for a succeeding phase of the project in which the rate of establishment of those plantations is increased and to encourage the establishment of sustainable small-scale private forest plantations. |
| 14. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: (Provide a description of the project and all its components.) |
|
The Registration of Small-Scale Private Forest Plantations signed a Memorandum of Understanding between the Republic of Korea and the Kingdom of Cambodia on December 24, 2019. The project is funded by the Government of the Republic of Korea through the AFoCO Secretariat for a period of two years from 2020-2021, implemented by the Department of Forestry and Private Forest Development of the Forestry Administration. |
| 15. PROJECT JUSTIFICATION: (Give reasons why this particular project is considered worthwhile.) |
|
The project aims at distributing seedlings of fruit trees and native tree species (Dalbergia cochinchinensis) to local communities and development of policy related to Guidelines on the Registration of Private Forest Plantations in Cambodia as well as strengthening of capacity of involved government officials based on experiences, best knowledge and technology associated with fast growing and native tree species plantations to supply timber and materials for the production of furniture and paper mills domestically and regionally. If the Guidelines is approved, the registration of private forest plantations will be conducted to facilitate transportation, harvesting of private plantations and other service. |
| 16. BENEFITS (Who will benefit, directly and indirectly, from the project?) |
|
The expected outcome of the project is the piloting of 375-425ha of small-scale private forest plantations (or agroforestry plantations) by 2 340 small-scale farmers that will unleash a process designed to ameliorate the effects of the insufficient development of those plantations and will ultimately result in creating production sources of commercial timber trees and fuelwood, increasing forest cover, improved local livelihoods, reduced degradation of natural forests, and increased investment in local development. |
| 17. FEASIBILITY STUDY |
|
Is a "Feasibility Study " for the Project requied?
|
| 18. SOCIAL & ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: (Briefly describe the effects of the project, if any, on the people and the surrounding environment. Will the project assist in alleviating poverty?) |
|
The project has no detrimental impacts on local communities and environment. Notwithstanding, the project has provided huge benefits to local communities through free distribution of seedlings of fruit trees and native species of trees to local communities to be planted as plantations which green environment surrounding their residences. The project will contribute to alleviation of poverty of local communities especially the planting of seedlings of fruit trees like mongos which have high demand on the market and export potentials which help to promote livelihood of local communities. |
