The document summarizes China's forestry green economy development and bamboo industry policy. It outlines China's forestry administration structure and distribution of forests. It then details China's focus on developing five major green industries: 1) bamboo, 2) special cash forests, 3) flowers, 4) under-tree economy, and 5) forestry tourism. Billions of dollars and millions of jobs are generated by these industries. It concludes by outlining China's 2013-2020 bamboo development plan and goals to increase bamboo industry output and farmer incomes, as well as key programs and supportive policies to develop bamboo resources, products, cultural awareness, science/technology, markets, and quality standards.

15. 3.The Bamboo Industry Policy

16. Bamboo Development Plan in China
To guide and regulate the China’s bamboo
sustainable development, SFA of China approved
the Bamboo Development Plan in China （ 2013-
2020 ） in 2013.

17.  Goals
By 2015: the total value of bamboo forests out-
put in China is expected to reach $32 billion,
increasing 66.5% from that in 2011.
By 2020, the total value of bamboo forests out-
put reaches $48 billion with 10 million directly-
involved labors in bamboo industries, and the
rural households’ incomes from bamboo
industries in those bamboo regions is expected to
be $330 per person, counting to 20% of the net
income per person in rural areas.

18. Bamboo Resources Cultivation.
Bamboo Product Processing.
