Henan surpasses annual aerial seeding target
河南超额完成年度飞播造林任务
Recently, Henan province completed its annual aerial seeding operations, covering an impressive 314,900 mu (approximately 20,993 hectares), exceeding the target by 16.6 percent and setting a new record for aerial seeding coverage, according to the Henan Forestry Administration on August 30. The 2024 provincial goal was to seed 270,000 mu (about 18,000 hectares). Starting in mid-May, the operation used two helicopters and four drones across eight prefecture-level cities, 16 counties (including county-level cities and districts), and the Jiyuan demonstration area. The task has now been accomplished.
8月30日,记者从省林业局获悉,日前,河南省年度飞播造林作业结束,共完成飞播造林31.49万亩,超额完成任务16.6%,飞播造林面积创历史新高。根据2024年河南省飞播造林实施方案和工作方案,今年全省共下达飞播造林任务27万亩。从5月中旬开始,全省动用2架直升机和4架无人机,陆续在8个省辖市、16个县(市、区)和济源示范区实施,目前全省飞播造林任务已全面完成。
To advance its goal of becoming a pilot demonstration province for scientific afforestation, Henan has launched a three-dimensional greening campaign in the Mangshan Mountain area of central and western Henan. Integrating trees, shrubs, flowers, grasses and vines, the campaign has covered an area of 77,000 mu (about 5,137 hectares), encompassing 5 county-level cities (or districts) of 2 prefecture-level cities, including Huiji district and Gongyi city in Zhengzhou, as well as Mengjin district and Yanshi district in Luoyang. Along both sides of the Lianyungang-Khorgos Expressway, mountain peach and mountain apricot trees were planted over a total distance of 22.86 kilometers, with 7.5 kilometers being suitable for aerial seeding. So far, the seeding task has been completed, surpassing the target by 16.6 percent.
