Remarkable progress has recently been made in protecting and increasing the forests of the country with the smooth operation of a national forest blight monitoring and forecasting system.
It is an advanced and scientific work system and informatization system of regularly examining and forecasting the position of the outbreak of blights, the amount of them and damage by them in all the forests across the country and promptly exterminating them under the unified guidance by a central organ.
This system was developed by the scientists of the Forestry Faculty of Kim Il Sung University and the Academy of Forestry.
A research team of the forestry faculty classified the monitoring of forest blights into different types according to regional characteristics and fixed the monitoring methods for major forest blights.
It was labour-consuming and toilsome to survey blights according to species of trees in the selected forests for establishing monitoring methods, and therefore they made painstaking efforts to ensure scientific accuracy, correctness and objectivity of relevant data.
Those of the Academy of Forestry studied and applied novel and innovative methods to establish a Korean-style forecasting methodology.
The scientists also solved the problems arising in the introduction of the system into practice in contact with officials of the Forest Guidance Bureau of the Ministry of Land and Environment Protection.
The system is a powerful means of grasping and controlling blight management on a nationwide scale in real time, providing another scientific and technological foundation for turning all mountains of the country into “gold and treasure mountains” with thick forests.
