National Forestry Resources Research InNaFORRI National Forestry Resources Research Institute, NaFORRI | "The Institute has made great strides in ensuring sustainable wood supply in Uganda by contributing in supplying quality seedlings of fast growing tree species e.g clonal eucalyptus, Pinus carribea, Melia volkensii, Olea welwitschii (Elgon teak). NaFORRI has also contributed to availing quality seedlings for some of the highly demanded medicinal tree species such as Warbugia ugandensis, Prunus africana and Kigelia africana.In a bid to curb deforestation and mitigate climate change effects, NaFORRI has developed technologies that improve wood recovery through efficient wood waste utilization. Various products have thus been developed from wood waste such as fuel lighters from saw dust and glulam furniture from timber offcuts. Furthermore, NaFORRI has conducted research on renewable energy technologies geared towards reducing deforestation. Some of the products generated include energy saving cook stoves, charcoal and briquettes from wood waste and biodiesel from selected energy crops. NaFORRI is also exploring the potential of various bamboo species for the furniture, construction and energy industry as well as for forest restoration and mitigation of climate change effects. This is premised on the fact that bamboo is a fast-growing plant and that bamboo species have physical and mechanical qualities comparable to those of woody species. Hence, various products have been produced including bamboo fuel, assorted kitchen ware and other artisan furniture. NaFORRI’s successful intervention of using biological agents to control tree pests and diseases has given hope to hundreds of commercial Eucalyptus farmers who were losing their trees and livelihood. The invasion of exotic pests on the commercial tree growing scene in 2014, created uncertainty for tree growers. Before intervention, the devastating pests such as blue gum chalcid, Red gum Lerp psyllid and Bronze bug were wiping out Eucalyptus trees in Uganda estimated at 50,000 ha, and pausing a likely loss of 1.75 trillion shillings in revenue.
