Economically viable forest production in smallholder plantations of Central-Vietnam in the context of developing carbon markets

Project: Research project

Project Details

Description (abstract)

This study analyzed the potential of increasing yields from log wood production, and estimated smallholder Acacia plantations’ potential to contribute to climate change mitigation through carbon sequestration. We calculated additional income for smallholders from carbon payments focusing on Thua Thien-Hue and Quang Ngai provinces of Vietnam.

This project was carried out in cooperation with Food and Forest Development Finland (FFD) and Centre for Climate Change Study in Central Vietnam (CCCSC).
