According to the Provincial Cooperative Union, the unit has just received 31,664 Euros (nearly 876 million VND) from Project VIE8701. With this funding, the Provincial Cooperative Union has supported 3 cooperatives including Hoa My Tay Agricultural Service Cooperative, Hoa Phu Agricultural Service Cooperative (Tay Hoa district), Hoa Dinh Tay Agricultural Service Cooperative (Phu Hoa district), to complete the tasks serving the issuance of FSC forest certification.
Specifically, 3 cooperatives were trained in silviculture techniques, labor safety, labor use and committed to limiting the use of pesticides in planting and caring for forest trees to protect the ecological environment of planted forests; consulted with relevant parties about the application for forest certification... In the coming time, the Provincial Cooperative Union will work with FSC forest certification experts so that cooperatives and cooperative members can receive FSC forest certification.
Project VIE8701 “Towards the restoration of small-scale forestry in Vietnam”, funded by the Finnish Agency for Food and Forestry Development, aims to support cooperatives and small-scale forest growers with FSC certification, increase the value of planted forests and protect forests sustainably.
