The Oji Group owns about 470,000 hectares of forest (equivalent to approximately twice the area of the Tokyo metropolitan area) in Japan and overseas and has stated sustainable forest management as part of its Environment Action Program. As part of this, the group is promoting initiatives to preserve the biodiversity of forests and engages in activities that include protection of the Itou Japan’s largest freshwater fish (Sarufutsu Forest, Hokkaido) and conservation of alpine plants (Samani Forest, Hokkaido).
Going forward, the Oji Group will make even more efforts to maintain and promote the diverse functions of forests.
