August 6 2007: Saplings were attacked by pests

 

        
  Recently, pests were being identified on the tree trunks by several
villagers from Anshang Village in Lashihai Wetland in Lijiang. The
farmers asked for pesticides at the Lashi Township in order to cope
with the pests. After checking the trees at the site with villagers,
YEN project officer in charge of the Sapling Volunteers consulted with
experts from Yulong County Forest Bureau, who positively supported the
idea that both YEN and the bureau organize an on-the-spot demonstration
on how to prevent pest for villagers and local sapling volunteers in
the coming month.
