River Red Gum

The main species introduced in the commercial forest development of Jiajiang County is the River Red Gum. In addition to playing a significant role in afforestation, planting River Red Gum mainly provides raw materials for paper mills and medium-density fiberboard factories. This not only helps preserve the ecological environment but also yields considerable economic benefits.

Currently, the River Red Gum plantation in Jiajiang County has expanded to over 30,000 mu. Moreover, the county’s research on high-yield techniques for River Red Gum is leading the province.
