Their livelihoods largely rely on forest products and other plant resources. Mountain societies have rich traditional knowledge of the use and management of bamboo resources; this is put to practice by rural farmers in their day-to-day life to secure survival and development. Methods Data collection and review of literature A considerable amount of information presented here is based on field investigations undertaken by the authors of this paper. Results were partly published by several authors (Xue et al 1995; Geng and Wang 1996; Wang 1999; Wang 2000; Wang et al 1993; Wang et al 2000; Yang et al 2000; Ma and Zhang 2002) to enrich and support the objectives of conservation and sustain- able utilization of species, as well as preservation of tra- ditional uses in Yunnan province. Interviews with local inhabitants Interviews with local inhabitants provided an important source of information on distribution, habitat, ecologi- cal conditions, and regeneration of bamboo, as well as on indigenous knowledge systems concerning classifica- tion, utilization, management, and conservation of bamboo. Interviews with local inhabitants were con- ducted in 3 phases: Phase 1: Collection of information on bamboo from local villages, to obtain general information on species that are being used and on the vari- ous uses. Personal interviews and question- naires were employed. Phase 2: In order to identify the key species of bamboo used in local communities and to assess their potential for cultivation and development, the second phase consisted in selecting information at individual level in the case study area. Phase 3: Semi-structured interviews and group inter- views were conducted to cross-check data and FIGURE 3 Dai women cooking rice in Cephalostachyum pergracile containers. information obtained during phases 1 and 2.

  • Industrial Utilization on Bamboo
    TECHNICAL REPORT NO.26 26 TECHNICAL REPORT NO.26 Bamboo features the outstanding biologic characteristics of keeping rhizoming, shooting, and selective cutting every year once it is planted successfully, which makes it can be sustainable utilized without destroying ecological environment. This is a special disadvantage all woody plants lack. But compared with wood, bamboo displays a few disadvantages such as smaller INDUSTRIAL diameter, hollow stem with thinner wall, and larger taper, which bring many problems and difficulties for bamboo utilization. In early 1980’, the scientists and technologists put forward a new UTILIZATION utilization way of firstly breaking bamboo into elementary units and then recomposing them via adhesives to manufacture a series of structural and decorative materials with large size, high strength, and variety of properties that can be shifted accordance ON BAMBOO with different desire. Therefore, two main kinds of products, e.g. bamboo articles for daily use and bamboo-based panels for industrial use, were gradually formed. Industrial Utilization On Bamboo Bamboo articles, which are made of smaller diameter bamboo culms by means of the procedures of sawing, splitting, planning, Zhang Qisheng, sanding, sculpturing, weaving, and painting etc. include a variety of products answering the advocate of loving and going back Jiang Shenxue, nature keeping in people recently. Accordance with their elementary units, bamboo-based panels and Tang Yongyu are manufactured via following four processing ways: (1) Bamboo strip processing method, in which a round bamboo culm is broken into strips including soften-flattened and sawn-shaved ones by means of sawing, splitting, panning etc. (2) Bamboo sliver processing method, which is a popular method that a bamboo segment is manufactured into slivers with thickness of 0.

Despite prior study of the effect of fiber volume and gradation on the strength of bamboo, results are variable, not well understood, and in some cases contradictory. Most study has considered longitudinal properties which are relatively well-represented considering bamboo to be a unidirectional fiber reinforced composite material governed by the rule of mixtures.
