Research, Development And Extension Initiatives Of Ecosystem Research Development Service (Erds) In The Various Regions Of The Country The Ecosystem Research and Development Services (ERDS) of DENR in the regions likewise conduct studies that have some bearing on bamboo production. Table 3 shows the list of these RDE initiatives in the regions. These initiatives were mostly application and demonstration of production technologies and conservation activities. Research Development And Extension Initiatives Of Various Institutions With International Funding Support 1. The National Bamboo Research and Development Project (NBRDP)- The efforts and initiatives on bamboo production were characteristically scattered and less comprehensive. The DENR through its research arm, the ERDB, felt the need to implement a more comprehensive national bamboo research and development project. Thus, in 1987 such project was launched with the funding support from UNDP-FAO. This project generated research outputs on the various aspects related to bamboo production from taxonomy, physiology, phenology, pest and diseases, propagation, harvesting and management including economics and marketing. Table 4 shows the list of the studies conducted under this NBRD project. 2. The European Commission Bamboo Project – Entitled “Sustainable management and quality improvement of bamboos,” this project which was implemented from 1997 to 2001. It aimed to increase the knowledge on the sustainable supply, use and quality improvement of selected bamboo species in Southeast Asia. Specifically, it aimed to develop improved management and sustained use for bamboos in the region; determine the influence of management practices on basic culm properties; to optimize the processing and performance of higher technology bamboo products based on “improved” raw material; and, disseminate the information to user groups. The implementation of the project involved 3 countries in Southeast Asia (Philippines, Indonesia and Malaysia) and 3 countries in Europe (Germany, Belgium and United Kingdom). The Philippines was tasked to conduct study of the silviculture and management of 2 bamboo species, namely Gigantochloa levis and Dendrocalamus asper. The 2 hectare plantation was established at the UP Quezon Land Grant. The results of this study were published in Bamboo and Rattan International Journal published by INBAR in 2005. 3. Australian Council for International Research (ACIAR) Project (FST/2000/127) entitled “Improving and maintaining productivity of bamboo for quality timber and shoots in Australia and the Philippines” was implemented in Southeast Asia. Professor David Midmore has served as the Project Leader and Australians and Filipinos from different agencies and institutions were serving as investigators. It has the following objectives: First, to study and implement a process to rehabilitate existing aged/and or damaged bamboo stands for shoot and timber production; secondly, the project aims to develop management technologies for sustainable and high productivity of existing bamboo plantations for shoots and timber; and, third is to improve the efficiency and quality of the bamboo timber harvest. As expected, project will contribute to the knowledge network in Australia and Southeast Asia and so, it will build on and foster the work of INBAR and other bamboo groups. Accordingly, project has been structured VIII World Bamboo Congress Proceedings Vol 2-9
around a series of empirical experiments involving the management of bamboo spread around Australia and the Philippines. It includes formal and informal meetings designed to foster and promote associations between bamboo people and to formulate commercial arrangements. Present National Project On Bamboo The “Bamboo Industry Development Program: Mainstreaming Engineered-Bamboo Products in the Philippine Raw Materials Market for Construction and Furniture,” is the newly approved bamboo program being implemented by a number of collaborating institutions. The Program Leader is Dr. Ramon Razal of UPLB. It has 5 project components. The development and management of pilot bamboo plantations in selected areas in Laguna is one of the major components. Packaged Bamboo Scientific Information And Technology 1. The Philippine Recommends for Bamboo Production published by PCARRD and the DENR National Program Coordinating Office was probably the first of a package of information on bamboo production and harvesting in the country. This was the product of the various researches conducted by the scientist and practitioners from ERDB, CFNR-UPLB, IPB-UPLB, Tarlac College of Agriculture (TCA), Kawayan Farms and PCARDD. This is being revised to include production and utilization of commercial bamboo species but also ornamental bamboos. The updated version will come out soon. 2. Agroforestry Technology Information Kit published by International Rural Reconstruction Movement (IRRM) in Cavite in which bamboo production is one of the main technology components. 3. Sustainable Livelihood Options for the Philippines: An Information Kit (Upland Ecosystem) –published by DENR where giant bamboo for propagule production, deformed bamboo production and bamboo utilization are included as alternative livelihood for the uplands. 4. Training Manual on Agroforestry published by KAPWA in collaboration with the Institute of Agroforestry, CFNR-UPLB. This manual serves as reference materials for trainors as well as for actual practitioners or users of technology. 5. Training documents on various courses namely: Reforestation, Nursery Establishment and Management, Community Enterprises, Social Forestry/Community Development and others include bamboo propagation, bamboo planting stock culture and bamboo plantation establishment and management. Compiled documents are available in CFNR-UPLB and these are used as materials for international as well as national training. 6. RISE or Research Information Series on Ecosystems (Reforestation Species) has specific volumes featuring bamboo species, their description, habitat, uses, propagation and cultural management procedures.
