  • Study Tour of Romania
    Pro Silva Ireland Tour to Romania 26th April - 2nd May 2004 Printed Editorial "What a magnificent sight: range after range of afforested mountains as far as the eye can see. Only in Brazil have I seen anything like it." (overheard) Romania is justly proud of its forests and its age old tradition of forest management. We were fortunate to see woods which would be inaccessible without the organi- sation of the Romanian Forest Service, and to be guided by knowledgeable and enthusiastic foresters. We are particularly grateful to Florian Borlea. His invitation to Robert Tottenham, when they met at an international meeting of Presidents of Pro Silva, triggered the visit of Pro Silva Ireland to see Romanian forests and their close-to -nature management. The scale in time and space challenges the imagination. It took eight hours to walk through a natural beech forest. It was an inspiration to see how managed oakwoods (rotation 120 years) can regenerate naturally and provide continuous cover. Mixed woodland needs skilled management, and this must accommodate not only the timber industry but use of the forests by visiting sportsmen and gatherers of mushrooms as well as wildlife conservation, protection of water quality and recreation. And this integrated approach is shown to be profitable. No government funding is needed to support forestry in Romania. Above all we related the experience to Irish forestry and the tradition of hardwood and permanent cover which has been lost here. Only by seeing at first hand the tradition continued for many generations, as in Romania, can we begin to envisage how our own hardwood tradition can be regained.

  • The Sound Use of Wood and Other Resources in Romania
    ECONOMIC COMMISSION FOR EUROPE FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION Timber Committee European Forestry Commission TIM/SEM.1/2003/R.19 10 February 2003 Original: ENGLISH Seminar on STRATEGIES FOR THE SOUND USE OF WOOD Poiana Brasov, Romania 24-27 March 2003 The sound use of wood and other resources in Romania Session IV Paper by Mr. Gheorghe Dumitriu-Director, Gheorghe Pirnuta- Scientific Director, Iovu Biris – Scientific Secretary and Gheorghe Florian Borlea-project leader; Forest Research and Management Institute-Bucharest, Romania ABSTRACT The sustainable forest management in Romania has a long tradition and the national forest area was managed in terms of the silvicultural regime (system of technical, economic and legal norms/regulations issued by the Central Public Authority for Forestry). The allowable cut is determined taking into account rotation length, average species composition, forest structure according to the site indices and the existing distribution of age classes. The actual present-day contribution of the forestry sector to the GDP show us that wood and other forest resources in Romania are still underused resources from the economical point of view. The primary wood processing sector is important but an important part of the primary and secondary timber industry has been operating in an environment of outdated technology. The main problem of the forest products industry in Romania nowadays is the poor knowledge of marketing and market information and little access to finance grants and loans. Also, the reliable and accurate information about the forest business sector is missing in the bussines environment. The fundamental objective of the present-day national forestry policy and strategy in Romania is the development of the forestry sector in order to increase the sector contribution to the improvement of the quality of life, based on the sustainable management of the forests.

  • Commons As Traditional Means of Sustainably Managing Forests and Pastures in Olt Land (Romania)
    sustainability Article Commons as Traditional Means of Sustainably Managing Forests and Pastures in Olt Land (Romania) Gheorghe Ros, culet, and Daniela Sorea * Department of Social and Communication Sciences, Transilvania University of Bras, ov, 29, Eroilor Bd, 500036 Bras, ov, Romania; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Abstract: The compossessorates in Transylvania (Romania) are traditional varieties of commons. During the inter-war period two types of compossessorates were most common in the Olt Land, between the Olt River and the Southern Carpathians: those of the former boyars and the ones owned by the former serfs. An analysis of the 1904 Austro-Hungarian Regulation on the organization and management of the commons, of the 1910 Romanian Forest Code that was implemented in Transylva- nia after 1918, and of the by-laws of compossessorates, derived from the aforementioned documents, unveils the concern of both legislators and members of compossessorates for the preservation, bal- anced exploitation and regeneration of the forest fund and their focus on sustainable management of forests. The compossessorates were disbanded upon the instauration of the communist regime in Romania and re-established after 1989. Nowadays, compossessorates in the Olt Land continue the local tradition of sustainably managing the forests and the pastures. Their activity in this regard can be improved. Collaboration of the communal schools and the university with the compossessorates, the use of the Internet to promote their image and the involvement of NGOs in their support would be effective in this respect. Citation: Ros, culet,, G.; Sorea, D. Keywords: commons; sustainable management; forest; compossessorates Commons as Traditional Means of Sustainably Managing Forests and Pastures in Olt Land (Romania).
