Bamboo Research and Development Project

The dwindling supply of timber resources has become a nationwide problem in the Philippines that alternative materials have to be developed. Bamboo has been considered an ideal substitute because of its many uses and marketability as wood, and it is a suitable reforestation species that could provide both livelihood and environmental protection in the upland communities and watershed areas. It was for this reason that the Philippine Government requested for the implementation of the Bamboo Research and Development Project. The Project was coordinated and implemented by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) through the Ecosystems Research and Development Bureau (ERDB). The sustainability of the Project is the ultimate objective with the end in view of sustaining the development of bamboo for environmental protection and source of livelihood in the countryside.
