Factors influencing the increase of forest cover in Luang Prabang Province, Northern Laos
Oupakone Alounsavath,김세빈 한국산림과학회 2016 Forest Science And Technology Vol.12 No.2
Luang Prabang Province’s (LPP) forest cover was estimated at 24.2% (0.48 million ha) of the total land area in 1982. This decreased to 12.8% by the early 2000s and then sharply increased to 32.8% (0.65 million ha) in 2010, an annual increase of 2.8% (50,000 ha) from 2002 to 2010. This paper attempts to examine the factors influencing the increase of forest cover in LPP during the 2000s. The study analyzes the influence of local socioeconomic development on changes in forest cover based on forest transition theory (FTT). The study period is relatively short compared to historical studies of forest transition, which often extend over several decades. To overcome this limitation, Huaphanh Province, which showed a decrease in forest cover, was used as a control province for comparison. Secondary social and economic data from various sources were collected and analyzed using qualitative and comparative analysis. The results from this study indicate that the increase in forest cover is closely linked to socioeconomic development in the province. Increasing economic development and urbanization provided alternative employment opportunities for the rural population and led to decreases in both rural population and poverty. In addition, with improvement of infrastructure in rural areas, particularly roads and access to markets, rural households changed their agricultural practices from subsistence-oriented to market-oriented production. As a result, the rate of rural poverty continued to decline and areas of shifting cultivation and upland rice production decreased, which left the formerly cultivated land to fallow for a longer period, allowing the natural recovery of vegetation.

Forest policy measures influence on the increase of forest cover in northern Laos
김세빈,Oupakone Alounsavath 한국산림과학회 2015 Forest Science And Technology Vol.11 No.3
The government of the Lao People’s Democratic Republic has made great efforts to halt the rapid decline in forest cover by implementing different policy measures, which include measures: to address the causes of the decline in forest cover; to sustainably manage natural forests; and to regenerate degraded forests. In the last decade, forest cover has continued to decrease at a lower rate of just 1% from 2002 (41.5%) to 2010 (40.3%) at national level; however, there has been a net gain of forests in the northern region. This article attempts to examine what policy measures have an influence on the increase in forest cover in this region. This study reviews progress reports and official documents on policy measures addressing major causes of deforestation and forest degradation, rehabilitating degraded forests, and managing natural forests. The results from this study indicate that the natural regeneration of degraded forest provides a significant contribution in the increase of forest cover in the northern region. This increase is most likely influenced by the decrease in both rural poverty and slash-and-burn shifting cultivation in the northern provinces. Timber harvesting and conversion of forest to other uses still remain critical issues in Laos because of incomplete national land use zoning and a lack of forest management plans in most of the natural forests, as well as weaknesses in law enforcement. Further research to identify the drivers behind the increase in forest coverage in the northern provinces will provide vital information to develop clearer policy instruments to rehabilitate degraded forest at national level.
