Tridge summary

National Korean Beef Association and Korea Forest Service Realization of carbon neutrality and promotion of management stability of Korean cattle farms The National Korean Beef Association (Chairman Kim Sam-Joo) and the Korea Forest Service (CEO Nam Nam-hyun) are promoting the 'Experimental project to convert arrowroot vines into forage by-products' to diversify domestic forage and preserve forest ecosystems. . Accordingly, forest by-products such as vines that were removed and thrown away to recover and prevent forest damage are expected to be used as domestic forage through upcycling. As the spread of vines due to the mild weather caused by climate change hindered the smooth growth of reforestation trees and the creation of healthy forests, it is expected that this project will yield positive results. In addition, this pilot project is significant in that farmers' groups and the government cooperate to achieve carbon neutrality in the face of the climate crisis. In particular, it is expected that it will greatly contribute to the management stability of Korean beef farms if the business is launched in earnest amid the recent surge in the price of imported forage. Forest by-products such as arrowroot stems and leaves collected by vine removal are stored in a certain place.
