森林覆盖率达67.2%的湖南省怀化市,早在1991年,就被林业部列为全国林业改革试验区,为我国南方集体林区的改革与发展进行了不懈的探索。2007年4月,怀化市被湖南省确定为全省集体林权制度改革试点市,以改革闻名的怀化林业再次成为全国瞩目的焦点。 As early as 1991, Huaihua City, Hunan Province, with a forest coverage rate of 67.2%, was listed as a pilot zone of China’s forestry reform by the Ministry of Forestry, making unrelenting efforts to reform and develop the collective forest region in southern China. In April 2007, Huaihua City was identified as the pilot city for the reform of the collective forest rights system in Hunan Province, and Huaihua Forestry, famous for its reform, once again became the focus of attention throughout the country.
