For the purpose of creating short rotation forests for biomass production over 100,000 ha by 2020, the Establishment Plan of Short Rotation Forests for Biomass Production was established in 2009. About 6,116 ha of short rotation forests
for biomass production have been established through fast growing species such as the tulip tree and various other types of poplars as of 2009. (Source: http://unfccc.int/resource/docs/natc/kornc3.pdf)
