State of Forestry in Asia and the Pacific. Secretariat note of the Twenty-seventh session of the Asia-Pacific Forestry Commission
The Global Forest Resources Assessment (FRA) 2015 estimated total forest area in the Asia- Pacific region in 2015 to be 723 million hectares.1 This is an increase of 5 million hectares since 2010 and 20 million hectares since a low point of 703 million hectares recorded in 2000. However, this regional increase is the result of significant reforestation efforts in a few countries including China, India, the Philippines and Viet Nam. Many countries in the region are still experiencing significant forest loss.
