Vietnam forestry management and planning

Overview

Vietnam is experiencing both growth and regulatory challenges within its forestry sector. In Phu Tho province, reforestation efforts have exceeded annual targets, with timber production increasing by 19.5 percent compared to the previous year. However, Lam Dong province has reported significant legal issues, including 430 forestry law violations and numerous cases of illegal deforestation and land encroachment.

To address management and protection needs, the Vietnamese government has adjusted its 2021–2030 forestry planning. The updated strategy aims to generate an average of 4 trillion VND annually from forest environmental services between 2026 and 2030. This plan focuses on developing a forest carbon credit market and utilizing funds from carbon absorption and storage services to support forest monitoring, fire prevention, and the prevention of illegal encroachment.
