Call for a tree domestication strategy in Vietnam
The forestry sector has been successful in implementing forest restoration over the last 25 years, although forest quality remains limited and germplasm sources contain poor genus. Current tree domestication efforts focus on exotic fast growing species rather than indigenous trees and Non Timber Forest Products (NTFP). Development of a domestication strategy will enable the acceleration of tree domestication activities for selected indigenous tree species, supporting improvement of livelihood for forest growers and conservation efforts whilst complementing the role of exotic species in forest plantations across Vietnam.
