China has more than 6.67 million hectares of bamboo
forests with an annual output value of nearly 320 billion yuan ($49
billion, Huang Zhengqiu, an official with the National Forestry and
Grassland Administration, announced on Tuesday.
China's bamboo
forest area, bamboo accumulation, quality of bamboo products, profits
and exports are among the top in the world, Huang said at a press
conference of the 11th China Bamboo Cultural Festival which will be held
from October 19 to 21 in Yibin, Sichuan province.
This year's
festival will invite representatives from industry management
departments, key bamboo producing areas, scientific research
institutions, enterprises, and international professionals to gather
together to discuss and make suggestions for the development of the
bamboo industry, reports Xinhua news agency.
At the same time,
the bamboo cultural festival will also focus on displaying new
equipment, cutting-edge processes, and new products of China's bamboo
industry.
A total of 128 enterprises from 15 provinces in key
bamboo-producing areas in China will participate in online and offline
exhibitions.
Twelve events will be held during the festival,
including six main activities, such as the opening ceremony and summit
forum, and six special activities, such as a bamboo calligraphy
exhibition and a bamboo photography exhibition.
The first Bamboo Cultural Festival took place in 1997.
The
11th China Bamboo Cultural Festival was supposed to be held in the
first half of 2020 but was postponed to this year due to Covid-19.
