title: Order No. 0020 for the establishment of methods of reforestation, 19 March 1987.
abstract: In light of the "Green Movement" policy and the development of the Colombia Major National Reforestation Plan, this Order establishes the following methods of promoting reforestation:  1) advice and guidance to those concerned with tree planting; 2) forestry planning for farms; and 3) grants of trees whenever possible in the proportions indicated in the Order.  The Order classifies beneficiaries into small-size tree farmers (up to 20 hectares, and 80% of whose income derives from that activity); and medium- and large-scale tree farmers (more than 20 hectares).  Other provisions of the Order deal with applications, dates of completion of requirements, and the actual methods of promoting reforestation.
