Signal Successes Made in Forest Restoration
Pyongyang, November 12 (KCNA) -- One year has passed since the start of the forest restoration campaign in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.

In the period, signal successes have been made according to long-term, stage-by-stage and yearly plans for afforesting the country within ten years.

Central and local headquarters were organized to guide the campaign in a responsible way.

A sci-tech room was built at the Central Tree Nursery to disseminate advanced forest science and technology through local network.

Various methods of planting trees in all seasons have been completed, which is conducive to decisively increasing the survival rate of transplanted saplings.

Big efforts have been paid to laying solid material and technical foundations of producing saplings under any climate conditions in North and South Phyongan, North Hwanghae and Kangwon provinces.

This year alone, hundreds of millions of saplings were transplanted on bald mountains covering more than one hundred thousand hectares.

When giving field guidance to the Central Tree Nursery in November last year, supreme leader Kim Jong Un ardently called on the entire party and army and all the people to turn out in the forest restoration campaign.
