  1. COMMUNITY FOREST DEVELOPMENT Rehabilitation and sustainable forest management by Jaap Kuper

  2. Passive forest rehabilitation at the Royal Forest “Het Loo” • Opportunities for passive forest rehabilitation in Yunnan • Opportunities for active forest rehabilitation in Yunnan • Community forestry in context of climate change

  3. Agriculturalforestry

  4. Production natural growth Time

  5. Production growth by investment natural growth Time

  19. Opportunities in Yunnan • There are many forest remnants • They need rehabilitation • It is too expensive to do active rehabilitation
