Navigating the Multiverse of Forest Data
Mampankah ladang hutan di Semenanjung Malaysia?
Sejak 2007, pembangunan pesat ladang hutan di hutan simpan telah menjadi salah satu pemacu utama kehilangan hutan di Semenanjung Malaysia. Pembangunan ladang menebas hutan asli dan menanam semula dengan sejenis species pokok cepat tumbuh.
Ladang hutan disebut-sebut sebagai cara lebih berkesan menghasilkan kuantiti besar kayu. Jelas lihat sokongan kuat kerajaan persekutuan dan negeri membangunkan ladang hutan, dengan memberikan pinjaman mudah dan hak guna tanah kepada pengusaha swasta.
Namun, 15 tahun kemudian, apakah hasil pencapaian ladang hutan? Adakah ia menunjukkan tanda-tanda pembangunan mampan? Itulah tumpuan siasatan Macaranga setahun sejak Mac 2021. Penemuan kami diterbitkan dalam bahasa Inggeris pada Februari 2022 dan kemudian diterjemahkan ke dalam Bahasa Malaysia.

马来半岛的人工林属于永续发展吗？
自2007年，人工林自2007年在马来西亚半岛森林保留区里迅速扩张，跃升为半岛近10年森林流失的最大动力之一。人工林把多元森林清除后以园丘方式翻种单一树种，旨在有效出产大量木材。联邦政府和州政府鼎力支持人工林发展，颁发优惠贷款和土地使用权给与发展商。
然而，15年来，人工林取得了什么结果？又能否算是永续发展呢？ 针对这些问题，Macaranga 在 2021年3月开始了一年的调查。我们的调查结果于2022年2月以英文刊登，尔后再翻译成中文。

Forest Plantations in Reserves: Quick to Cut, Slow to Grow
Forest plantations are touted to turn degraded forests into a sustainable timber supply in Peninsular Malaysia. But our investigations reveal that so far, the plantations have cut lots of forests without any guarantee of harvest dates or yields.
