Tastes have made "hot" add logging, illegal salvage yew wood in the Ea Krong Nang H'leo and (Dak Lak) and threaten the safety of the two protected areas remaining yew finally in Vietnam in Ea Ral, and commune Ea Hleo Trap Ksor, Krong N?n, if not prevented timely and effective, the yew-of exotic species will become extinct.
Yew (aka water information) is the big tree Friendly, mature trees over 20 meters high, stem diameter can be up to over 1m, beautiful wood grain, wood scented Typically used manipulated crafts. Yew have economic value and science, is named in the Vietnam Red Book, was put in endangered species have high, is one of 10 common species are conservation priorities. Decree 32/2006 / ND-CP on management of forest flora and fauna endangered, rare, yew were classified as Ia, prohibit business processing for commercial purposes. International Foundation for the Conservation of Nature (WWF) has announced the yew is one of the species most intensively hunted.
In our country, the province of Dak Lak is the only remaining sanctuary two yew. According to a recent survey of FPD Daklak of yew, shows: At Ea H'Leo about 200 trees in Krong Nang district and 30 trees. Ea Ral sanctuary in Dak Lak Province has established protective Station Manager Ea Ral yew tree; also in Krong Nang district, FPD and local authorities implement strict conservation work, even had to rent all households near the yew areas, participate in protecting individual yew, but hydro Spare still being cut down illegally. From the beginning of the year, particularly in Ea H'Leo has 4 plants poachers and illegal loggers. Dozens of yew wood m3 illegally harvested forest rangers have been arrested, many objects have been administratively sanctioned, even those subject to criminal prosecution for acts of illegal exploitation of yew, So that seems to last yew trees in Dak Lak is not really safe.
Even in Buon Ma Thuot, is not very difficult to find an address manipulate, sell handicrafts made from yew wood. And in districts like Krong Buc, Ea Krong Nang and H'leo, the yew wood was piled up in many homes; operation of manufacturing facilities and handicrafts from yew quite openly. Access to some sales outlets and manipulated yew wood hyacinth, poison bottle, Maitreya statue ... yew wood in Ea Lake, Krong Nang district, we find that these products are made from precious wood trees This rare high price: 1 pair 30-40 cm high hyacinth, diameter of 15-20 cm is priced from 1-2 million; 1 Buddha Maitreya 1.4 m high with $ 40 million; 50 cm high statue cost 5-7 million; Three sets of multiple (Phuc Loc-Tho-) approximately 40 cm high cost tens of million; a yew branch logs diameter 10 cm, 30-40 cm long and cost a few hundred thousand. Prices handicraft items from yew wood depending on their skill and manipulated yew wood was soaked in water for a long time or have been exploited. One hand "cool" hobby yew wood in Daklak introduction: "If yew wood was soaked in water for a long time often have dark green, very beautiful wood grain prominent high price; yew wood was fresh, new exploiters, yellow and so fainter, so the price will be cheaper. "
According to our research, we learned that, in the 1980s when investment Dak Lak build irrigation lake Ea Ral, a large volume cut down yew. At that time, people do not pay attention to the exploitation of yew wood, yew and no prices, so the majority of people in the region only use yew wood for firewood. So there is still plenty of yew wood Immersion Ea Ral reservoir. About 1 year back, when hunting accident hot yew, many locals have flocked to the lake to salvage Ea Ral yew wood sale. Rangers and local governments held job blocking, but this is very difficult and cumbersome, cost of yew wood which continues to be salvaged. Should, for the trees have been cut down earlier, Dak Lak should enable artisanal and auction. Thus both increased revenues and to avoid loss of a large amount of rare wood. Besides, before the state purchase, processing and trade of handicrafts made from yew trees are quite frantic as current local government and industry in Dak Lak functionality also requires preventive measures. Themselves who have hobby wooden crafts yew wood also should understand really rare yew by yew individual remains at a minimum, but it has no medical effect as a "panacea "but it is rumored.
