areas suffering from sand and wind, thus bring overall deteriorating conditions
nationwide under initial control and rationalize the structure of the forest industry; to
increase forest cover to over 23% by 2020 to solve the major ecological problems in
some key regions, thus remarkably improve ecological conditions nationwide and
enhance forest industrial strength; to increase and sustain the forest cover to and at 26%

favourable cycle, alleviate the conflict between supply and demand of forest products
and establish a comparatively functional forest ecosystem and relatively developed
