| Nghe An province has over 30,000 hectares of easily flammable pine forests, with 16,000 hectares in the key area. However, currently, only 5,000-7,000 hectares are cleared annually. The majority of cleared areas are managed by forestry companies and protective forest management boards. The pine forest areas managed by communes are largely uncleared due to a lack of funding. |
