1. Plant Varieties<\/h3>\n

The Institute for Forestry Research and Development is a reputable institution recognized for the quality of plant varieties in the Northern mountainous region of Vietnam. The Institute provides a wide range of plant seedlings, including:<\/p>\n

Forestry Tree Species:<\/em><\/h4>\n

Seedling production for forestry species is one of the Institute’s core strengths. The Institute focuses primarily on fast-growing timber species for reforestation and raw wood production, such as Acacia<\/em>, Eucalyptus<\/em>, Manglietia<\/em>, and Toona<\/em> spp.<\/p>\n

By applying advanced in vitro<\/em> propagation techniques in forestry seedling production, the Institute\u2019s skilled technical team has successfully propagated hybrid Acacia<\/em> clones (BV10, BV16, BV32) and Eucalyptus<\/em> clones (U6, U7) through tissue culture, ensuring high propagation rates and superior seedling quality.<\/p>\n

To improve productivity and quality of plantation forests, the Institute has developed and standardized intensive reforestation protocols for Acacia<\/em>, Eucalyptus<\/em>, Toona<\/em>, and Manglietia<\/em> suited to the Northern mountainous provinces and applicable nationwide.<\/p>\n

The Institute has also successfully propagated and supplied indigenous forestry species, focusing on ecologically and economically valuable species such as Erythrophleum fordii<\/em> (Lim xanh), Michelia mediocris<\/em> (Gi\u1ed5i xanh), Dalbergia tonkinensis<\/em> (S\u01b0a \u0111\u1ecf), Toona sinensis<\/em> (Xoan ta), and Toona sureni<\/em> (Xoan \u0111\u00e0o).<\/p>\n

In addition, the Institute has selected and propagated specialty forest tree species, including grafted Canarium album<\/em>, grafted Canarium tramdenum<\/em>, Calamus<\/em> spp., and Premna<\/em> spp. These trees are propagated from elite clones with high and stable yields, which are highly favored in the market.<\/p>\n

Medicinal Plants:<\/em><\/h4>\n

The Institute has selected and successfully propagated numerous high-value medicinal plants to meet the growing demand for medicinal plant cultivation inside and outside the province. These include Morinda officinalis<\/em> (Ba k\u00edch t\u00edm), Zingiber zerumbet<\/em> (G\u1eebng gi\u00f3), Polyscias fruticosa<\/em> (\u0110inh l\u0103ng), Fallopia multiflora<\/em> (H\u00e0 th\u1ee7 \u00f4 \u0111\u1ecf), Anoectochilus setaceus<\/em> (Lan kim tuy\u1ebfn), Curcuma zedoaria<\/em> (Ngh\u1ec7 \u0111en), Amomum<\/em> spp. (Sa nh\u00e2n), Panax pseudoginseng<\/em> (Tam th\u1ea5t), Desmodium styracifolium<\/em> (Kim ti\u1ec1n th\u1ea3o), etc., using tissue culture methods.<\/p>\n

Fruit Trees:<\/em><\/h4>\n

In cooperation with the Vegetable and Fruit Research Institute, the Institute has researched, selected, and grafted high-value fruit tree varieties such as Taiwanese jujube, large-fruited jujube, Thai jackfruit, late-season longan, Taiwanese guava, sapodilla, seedless persimmon, grafted avocado, star apple, and others for market supply. These fruit trees have clear provenance, quality assurance, and are widely recognized and trusted by organizations and individual growers.<\/p>\n

To improve the genetic quality of plant varieties and to establish a brand and a recognized seed supply center for Thai Nguyen province and the Northern mountainous region, the Institute\u2014under the framework of the Forestry Seed Development Investment Project in Thai Nguyen (2010\u20132015)\u2014has been developing an integrated forest seed management system. This includes:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    A tissue culture laboratory<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    A seed testing laboratory<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    A network of nurseries, seed orchards, and seed forests<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    By 2014, the following were successfully established:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • \n

      A 3.5 ha seed forest of Toona sinensis<\/em><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      A 5.2 ha seed forest of Acacia mangium<\/em><\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      A 1.2 ha provenance trial area<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    • \n

      A 3.0 ha conservation orchard for elite genotypes of nine species: Acacia<\/em>, white Eucalyptus<\/em>, red Eucalyptus<\/em>, grafted Canarium album<\/em>, grafted Canarium tramdenum<\/em>, Dendrocalamus barbatus<\/em> (Tre mai), Morinda officinalis<\/em>, and Amomum<\/em> spp.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      These will serve as sources of high-quality planting material for Thai Nguyen province and the broader Northern mountainous region.<\/p>\n

      2. Inputs and Seeds<\/h3>\n

      Since 2012, the Institute for Forestry Research and Development (formerly the Northern Mountainous Forestry Research Center) has supplied a wide variety of plant seeds. Notably, the Institute is a reputable supplier of Australian Acacia mangium seeds to watershed protection forest management boards, government agencies, and private nurseries serving reforestation programs.<\/p>\n

      Seed products include a wide selection, such as:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • \n

        Acacia mangium<\/em> (Australian provenance)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        Chukrasia tabularis<\/em> (L\u00e1t hoa)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        Erythrophleum fordii<\/em> (Lim xanh)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      • \n

        Amomum<\/em> spp. (Sa nh\u00e2n)<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        In addition, the Institute provides various input materials to support the development of forestry and agriculture sectors. In cooperation with the Vietnam Institute of Agricultural Genetics, the Institute supplies eco-friendly biological pesticides and microbial products, ensuring safety for users and the environment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
