In order to support the artificial cultivation of Taxus resources, if it is necessary to collect wild Taxus branches for the purpose of artificial cultivation of resources, we can continue to prepare relevant materials such as project establishment, site conditions, technical capacity, construction scale, main utilization direction, wild Taxus resources, collection operation plan, supervision and inspection measures, etc. according to the Regulations on the Protection of Wild Plants in People's Republic of China (PRC) and its relevant regulations, and apply to the State Forestry Administration, and strictly implement the following standardized management measures.
(a) the collection of wild yew branches and leaves is limited to the construction of cutting seedlings, and it is forbidden to directly collect wild yew branches and leaves for the construction of paclitaxel raw material base or other commercial activities.
(2) If it is necessary to collect wild branches of Taxus chinensis for cutting seedling construction, we must first select wild Taxus chinensis plants and determine the corresponding number of cutting mother plants. Cutting operation is limited to the selected mother plant, and cutting on non-superior trees is not allowed.
(3) Those who are approved to collect wild branches of Taxus chinensis can only engage in cutting operations on the mother plant according to the approved quantity and area after the collectors have passed the training, and strictly implement the following technical indicators: (1) The middle and upper branches of the mother plant should be selected for cutting operations, and the main shoots of the mother plant are prohibited from being collected, and the number of cuttings per plant should not exceed 20% of the total number of branches of the mother plant. After cutting, the branches should be left on the mother plant. (2) The branches collected should be the branches of the current year and the branches of the previous year, and the length of the branches of 3 years (including the current year) should not exceed 5 cm; (3) Wild plants with 3)DBH less than 20 cm should not be used as cutting mother plants; (4) The survival rate of cuttings should be no less than 60%.
(four) for the harvesting of wild yew, the local forestry authorities should study and formulate special management measures according to the local actual situation, and be responsible for the supervision of the whole harvesting operation. After the logging activities, the logging residues shall be collected and properly disposed by the local forestry authorities, and shall not be used for the commercial production, sales and export of paclitaxel.
(5) The competent forestry authorities at all levels should vigorously support the research and application of technologies for the protection, breeding and utilization of Taxus resources, improve the technical level of wild Taxus resources protection, excellent provenance and excellent single plant breeding, artificial breeding, transformation of natural mother forest and efficient cultivation of artificial forest, and promote the protection, development and sustainable utilization of Taxus resources.
Third, carry out Taxus resource management and clean-up of processing enterprises.
In order to standardize the management and utilization of Taxus resources, forestry authorities at all levels should organize a clean-up of Taxus resource processing enterprises within their administrative areas in the near future, investigate and grasp the basic situation of processing enterprises and the source of Taxus raw materials, and immediately correct enterprises that rely on wild Taxus resources for processing and operation, and stop processing and operating Taxus or other Taxus products until the problem of artificially planting raw materials is solved; Those who violate the criminal law should be handed over to judicial organs for criminal responsibility as soon as possible; With technical ability, standardized operation and management, and stable source of artificially cultivated raw materials, it shall be accompanied by relevant materials such as proof of raw material source, construction of raw material cultivation base, processing scale, processing technology, and types of products produced, and shall be submitted to the competent forestry authorities of provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government for handling in accordance with relevant regulations.
Four, strengthen the export management of paclitaxel and other yew products.
In order to prevent taxol and other Taxus products from being used in export trade and causing harm to wild Taxus resources, the competent forestry authorities of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the Central Government should strictly examine whether the raw materials of taxol and other Taxus products applied for export are all artificially planted Taxus resources, and verify the origin of raw materials, proof of provenance of raw material planting bases (fields), base scale, planting conditions and dynamic utilization of raw materials. Put forward audit opinions, report them to the State Forestry Administration or its authorized institutions for examination and approval, and obtain an export license issued by the National Endangered Species Import and Export Administration Office after approval. Applicants can go through the export declaration and inspection formalities with the export license.
Five, raise awareness, strengthen leadership, increase protection publicity and law enforcement supervision.
Wild plants are not only important natural resources, but also important environmental factors, which play an irreplaceable role in maintaining ecological balance and are the basis of sustainable social and economic development. The protection and rational utilization of wild plants are related to the long-term interests of the people. All localities should fully understand the importance of protecting natural forest resources such as Taxus chinensis, strengthen leadership, formulate effective protection and management measures, and ensure that the protection of Taxus chinensis resources is implemented. To widely publicize the "People's Republic of China (PRC) Forest Law", "People's Republic of China (PRC) Wild Plant Protection Ordinance" and other relevant laws and regulations, to carry out legal education, enhance the legal awareness of the whole people, improve the awareness of law-abiding. At the same time, strengthen law enforcement and supervision, jointly with relevant departments, investigate and deal with acts of destroying and illegally operating Taxus resources in strict accordance with the law, further standardize the artificial planting, processing and operation of Taxus resources in accordance with the law, and make Taxus resources protection and artificial planting and operation industries develop in a healthy direction. Wild plant protection and management institutions at all levels, forest resources and forestry administrative institutions and forest public security organs should cooperate with each other, take effective measures in time, strengthen law enforcement and supervision, organize special actions in a timely manner, and severely crack down on illegal and criminal acts that destroy Taxus resources according to law.
