VFFP: Village and Farm Forestry, Bangladesh
This is Amina Begum; she was a poor woman and now runs one of the 2‘500 private nurseries which deliver almost 100 million tree saplings every year. Trees have become a profitable crop for 650‘000 families because they are good assets: the net present value of a tree is 6 $ and a sapling costs 10 cents. The tree can be chopped in case of an emergency (e.g. a child‘s sickness).
