(ii) Establishment of fuelwood and pole plantations for sale to meet commercial and industrial demand;

(iii) Strengthening of the Wood Energy Division within the Forestry Department of MANR by appointing key staff and the carrying out of charcoal trials to investigate possibilities for increased production and marketing, and to carry out studies of alternative sources of energy
