Headline Reafforestation in Korea

Caption Description If the indiscriminate cutting of Koran forests, begun during World War II, continues at its present rate, the country's timber resources will be completely exhausted by 1970. The fighting, between June 1950 and June 1952, destroyed more than a seventh of the trees.
As part of a reafforestation campaign, the Korean Ministry of Agriculture set up near Seoul and with help from the UN Korean Reconstruction Agency (UNKRA), a Central Experiment Forestry Station (tree nursery). The station raises seedlings - mostly ""Korean red pine-trees"" - which are subsequently replanted on hillsides. Two hundred millions such seedlings have already been planted.
Here, Mr. Dayton P. Kirkham (USA), Forestry Economist with the Korean Civil Assistance Command, seconded to the Forestry Division of UNKRA, shows a Korean worker how to plant properly the seedlings. [August 1954]
