DocumentEffect of serial harvesting of shoots on rooting ability of teak clones
XV World Forestry Congress, 2-6 May 2022
2022Also available in:
No results found.Rejuvenation of shoots through budding and serial harvesting was carried out to produce shoots for rooted cutting of 106 teak clones. 3-month-old budded seedlings were topped and leaf pruned to stimulate secondary shoots that used for rooted cutting. 1-month old secondary shoots were harvested and rooted cutting in non-mist propagators. Number of shoots per stock and rooting ability of each clone were recorded for 6 consequences shoot harvesting at 2 weeks interval. 1 month after propagating showed that rooting ability were high significantly (Pr(>F) = 0.489) difference among clones. 35 clones had high rooting ability averaged more than 60 percent, 56 clones had 40-60 percent, while 15 clones had less than 40 percent. Number of shoots per stock and rooting ability were high significantly affected by order of consequence shoot harvesting. Average number of shoots per stock were 0.85, 0.87, 0.74, 0.88, 0.70 and 0.60 shoots (not every stock plant produce shoot in every harvesting round) while rooting ability were 54.01, 44.37, 19.68, 63.87, 81.90 and 73.63 percent for 1st to 6th shoot harvesting respectively. Number of shoots per stock increased from 1st until 4th cut and then decreased when 5th and 6th cut. Later harvesting trended to increase rooting ability.

DocumentA plan on how to create and maintain urban forest healing spaces to expand forest benefits in daily life
XV World Forestry Congress, 2-6 May 2022
2022Also available in:
No results found.Forest welfare services and healing programs allow city dwellers to relax and enjoy leisure time at a relatively low cost. With an increasing demand for such forest healing services, now is the time to construct a robust policy and institutional framework for the creation of ‘Forest Healing Complex’. This paper aims to create a policy and build an institutional framework for the expansion of forest healing services and benefits in daily life.
This paper emphasizes the necessity of creating ‘Forest Healing Complex’ based on a survey of demand and status of domestic forest healing services, and also examines a plan to introduce the Complex based on the analysis of trends and best practices at home and abroad. Furthermore, candidate sites for the Complex, principles of construction, and standards for siting were specified; facilities and activities to introduce were designed; and operation and maintenance plans were presented. Lastly, policy suggestions to promote forest healing among city dwellers were made as an alternative to creating urban forest healing places.

DocumentCarbon storage accounting in Brazilian harvested wood products
XV World Forestry Congress, 2-6 May 2022
2022Also available in:
No results found.Brazil is one of the world's leading manufacturers of forest products, and 94% of the raw material comes from cultivated forests, mainly of the Pinus and Eucalyptus genera. Harvested wood products (HWP) can be an important carbon pool, based on the estimated carbon stored in the products in use. Thus, as of 2006, the IPCC began to allow the inclusion of these estimates in national inventories of greenhouse gas emissions. However, Brazil only started to consider these removals and carbon emissions by HWP in the 2020 version of the inventory (base year 2016). The primary data of forest production used in this study were obtained from the database of FAO (FAOSTAT) and of IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics). Only products manufactured with raw material from planted forests were considered. The methodology for calculating the emission and removal of carbon dioxide followed the IPCC guidelines defined in 2006. Three groups of products were considered: sawnwood; wood-based panels; and paper and cardboard. Of the three approaches commonly used to estimate carbon absorption and emission, the most advantageous calculation was the atmospheric flow method, which is based on carbon fluxes rather than stock changes. This approach benefits major wood products exporting countries, such as Brazil. To calculate the estimates, production in the last year (2016) of 13.4 million m3 of sawnwood, 9.63 million m3 of wood panels and 10.3 million tons of paper and cardboard were considered. The estimates obtained indicate that, in 2016 (considering the period 1990-2016), the annual net contribution of forest products estimated by the atmospheric flow approach was the removal of - 50,772 Gg of CO2eq. This removal corresponds to about 3.5% of Brazil's total emissions and 12.8% of LULUCF (Land Use, Land-Use Change and Forestry) activities emissions.
