Pyongyang, November 10 (KCNA) -- The Central Tree Nursery under the Ministry of Land and Environment Protection is a leading sapling production base of the DPRK, in which sapling production has been put on a high scientific, industrial and intensive basis.

The General Secretary visited the Central Tree Nursery on November 10, 2014 and gave invaluable instructions concerning the tree nursery operation, including the one of expanding the sapling production base to produce more saplings and the one of perfecting the tree planting and cultivating method suited to the specific features of the country.
