China to phase out commercial logging in natural forests
China to phase out commercial logging in natural forests. The State Forestry Administration (SFA) has made
public plans to phase out commercial logging in the country’s natural forests.
In the first stage, commercial logging in natural forests in the key forest regions in the Northeast and Inner Mongolia will be halted. The loss of around 50 million cubic metres of annual harvests from the natural forests in China will add to the already huge gap between demand for timber and supply.
Commercial logging in natural forests to be phased out President Xi Jinping has signalled that all natural forests should be protected. According to Zhao Shucong, Head of the State Forestry Administration (SFA), China will stop commercial logging in natural forests in three stages.
China has implemented a Natural Forest Protection Programme (NFPP) for the past 16 years but the forests in many provinces have not recovered as anticipated. It is estimated that almost 200 million hectares of natural forests need to be protected but currently only 64% fall with the NFPP.

In the second stage commercial logging in other categories of natural forests will be phased out but logging
will continue non natural forests falling within collective and individual non-natural forest areas. The final stage
will be the cessation of commercial harvesting in all natural forests by the end of 2020.
