2nd International Forestry Seminar - Forest Tree Nurseries and Distribution of Seed Material

The EU-project by HSF and MoLEP aims to contribute to reforestation efforts in DPR Korea. The two-day workshop opened opportunities for exchange between forestry experts from Germany and representatives from various parts of the forestry sector in DPR Korea. The event contributed to enhance knowledge in science and technology in the field of forestry. A major part of the workshop was dedicated to the topic of tree nurseries and diverse techniques for the production and distribution of forest material.

Following the workshop, the German experts were given an opportunity to visit the model reforestation site in Sangseo-ri to conduct a professional assessment of the project’s progress, as well as consultation to the local authorities. An additional visit was conducted to the Centre for Sustainable Reforestation at the central tree nursery in Pyongyang. Both are part of the EU-funded project of HSF and MoLEP. The activity was the second out of four international seminars to be conducted within the framework of the overall project.
