Objective: Seminar Topic "The Sustainable Development of Macadamia Dak Lak" As a new plant in Vietnam, particularly in Daklak, macadamia has been planted for less than 10 years. However, through the research and experience of the Central Highland Agriculture- Forestry Science and Technology Institute and Vietnam Forestry Science Institute and via the practical planting of farmers, the results have shown that the potential development is very positive. The workshop purpose is to provide the necessary knowledge about macadamia in the Central highland provinces and particularly in Daklak, through listening to scientific reports and practices of the Australian experts, of Macadamia Project 037/VIE/05, of scientists, research institutes, some farmers and businesses, some discussion of the Chinese and Thai experts on their experiences over 30 years of developing macadamia, through questioning and answering for deeper understanding. The conference more clearly saw the potential and development of macadamia planting in Daklak. 6. Content: In the very beginning of the Seminar, Mr. Do Van Nhuan (vice President and Secretary General of Vietnam Forestry Science and Technology Association (VIFA), stated the reasons, introduced the chairman delegation, introduced the representatives, purpose, content of the workshop. 8 On 04/08/2009: The Seminar Opening Speech of Mr. Dinh Van Khiet, Vice Chairman of Daklak province: Provincial leaders welcome to the Macadamia Project 037/VIE/05, hold this seminar in Daklak Province; the Conference meet the aspirations and requirements of leadership, investors and farmers in the province. Daklak Province has great deal of coffee, rubber, cashew, pepper, yet still has land for developing macadamia and intercropping into the coffee plants and replacing some cashew and rubber areas. The province will have policies to support businesses and farmers to plant macadamia. The province will study and develop a program to for macadamia in the near future. The seminar participants listened to the following reports: 1 The prospect of developing macadamia in Vietnam. The presenter: Mr. Martin Novak.

The presenter: Associate Professor Tran Quoc Hien, Director of Macadamia Research Center, Guangxi Subtropical Plant Research Center. 11. - An Introduction of Cinnamon 1 variety, the Long Zhou Experiment Center, Guangxi. 12. - Speeches of a number of local representatives, in which: - Comments of Mr. Year Ghi Nie, Director of Daklak Science and Technology Department: affirmed to support growing macadamia in Dak Lak, with experience in intercropping macadamia with cocoa, coffee, and cashew trees. Recommendations: - Develop macadamia but still need grower to be assured that there are buyers willing to purchase the product from the grower. - Must have a combination of the four: The investor (business) + state + scientists + farmer. - Looking forward to the time when there is significant involvement by the state and many scientists. 9 13 The speech of Mr. Nguyen Lan Hung (Secretary General of Biology Vietnam) stated: + The output for macadamia seeds is completely assured. + When the farmers buy variety, they should request the bills for later retrieval, if the crop were not good, they would know where they have bought the variety. + The province should create good conditions to support business to invest into planting macadamia, business needs to be pioneered and then farmers will learn to follow. + Must give accurate information to farmers. + Must find products such as macadamia crops to introduce to the farmers. + Local, University, Research Institute and businesses together contribute to research and develop macadamia. 7. Summary of comments discussed: many delegates noted the questions and answers were as follows: Question 1: a) On the gray sand mixed soil, can macadamia bear the floods? Answers (Kim Wilson): Macadamia needs the soil with good drainage, preferably planting macadamia on the red soil, basalt and  grown in the soil with deep sand mixed layer and good drainage. Require to plant on the soil to be able to drainage well. b) If the macadamia trees have been intercropped with coffee and cashew trees, is it effective? Can the people living in the area with 2 seasons (rainy and dry seasons) grow macadamia trees? Answers (Kim Wilson): Conditions for growing cashew trees are different from conditions for macadamia trees. But experience shows that having macadamia intercropped with tea plant, coffee has been successful, macadamia should not be intercropped with cashew trees. With conditions in Vietnam, intercropping helps people reduce initial costs. c) What is the maximum ratio of slope for effective macadamia cultivation? Answers (Kim Wilson): On the slope, terraced fields must be built to avoid erode. Note to intercrop with other plants. Question 2: Growing macadamia massively, in Dak Lak what is the appropriate planting density? Answers (Kim Wilson): + In Australia, planting density is 312 trees / ha => dense, harvesting fast and not intercropping. + At the slopes, density is of 200 trees / ha. + Appropriate density for Vietnam on the flat upland is around 300 trees / ha, on the slopes, less than 200 trees / ha. Question 3: a) Are the grafted varieties of macadamia important? And which grafted variety should be used ? b) How much is the cost and identified time to take back the capital? What is the minimum productivity to get profit? How many years can we harvest from a macadamia? Answers (Kim Wilson): a) The original grafted variety has big influence on the growth and development of macadamia. In Australia, original grafted variety H2 is used most commonly. This variety has been sent to Vietnam to transplant and cultivate saplings. The characteristics of seedling H2 are: equal trees, good development. The grafted trees produce fruits earlier than trees from seeds. b) In Australia, the initial investment and labor costs labor are very expensive, mechanizing is compulsory, so the initial cost is high. From 4-5 years, the farmers do not gain anything, up to year 7, they can balance between inputs and outputs, factors affecting the profit are output, productivity and price of 1kg. Average yield of macadamia trees in farm over 10 years is 3.000kg/ha/year. Some places have reached 5000 kg /ha /year. The price of seed (NIS) is over 2 dollars/kg. In Hawaii 60-year-old trees still produce very good results. 10 Question 4: Is Whip graft good for a long life of tree? Considering that macadamia is a multifunctional tree, are its leave and wood useful? Is the macadamia’s nutritional value more than cashew? Answers (Kim Wilson) Grafting methods do not affect the growth and development of plants. In Australia no-one cut down macadamia for timber, only when the tree tumbles in the windy storm, they saw timber slabs. In Australia, they have had expenditure for research on the nutrition of macadamia with the human. Nutritional value of macadamia is very high, much oil (78%), protein, amino acid, multiple vitamins, eating macadamia’s nut is good for health. There are many documents talking about this issue. Therefore, the price of macadamia nut kernel is currently very high, over 20 USD / kg. Question 5: How can we combine breeding with growing macadamia? Answers (Kim Wilson): Breeding is not encouraged when the plants are still young, and when plants have fruits. Only combine in grass garden, grass for breeding, turn useless labor to useful work. 8. Date 05/08/2009. - The delegation went to Central Highland Agriculture Forestry Science Institute in EaKMAT. - Listened to the leadership of the Institute present a report introducing the Institute and its research. - The delegation had a tour in the seedling garden and the experimental garden for macadamia of the Institute. Many questions were discussed in the field. 9. Conclusion Professor Hoang Hoe, on behalf of Macadamia Project thanked Daklak Provincial People's Committee, Daklak Agriculture and Rural Development and the delegates for their attention, contributing many ideas to the workshop, thanked the international friends from Thailand and China who attended workshops with many interesting reports. The conference was perfectly successful. Professor Hoang Hoe emphasized a few following points: - The conference has affirmed the possibility to grow and develop macadamia in Daklak and Central Highland, however, macadamia need developing in a stainable way, not a massive movement. Central Highland has many ecological sub-areas (climate, soil ), which are suitable to macadamia plants, ensuring macadamia can be grown and developed well, bringing high economic efficiency and protecting environment. - Need to establish a sub-branch of an association for Dak Lak Macadamias, which is under Daklak Forestry Science and Technology Association to bring together, the businesses and the people who desire to grow macadamia, helping each other to develop the industry. - Operation of the branch focuses on the issues of sharing information, universalize knowledge, support and encourage growing macadamia in Dak Lak. - The branch establishment board will do the necessary procedures to quickly take to the branch into operation. - Due to the rain, very slippery road, the Organization Board did not bring the delegations to visit the macadamia intercropped with coffee plants garden at Mr. Thu’s home in Phu Loc commune, Krong nang district.
