An Analysis of Soviet Competitive Potentialities Skogsekonomi i Sovjet~rnionen rned en unalys av landets potentiella konkurrenskraft by KARL VIICTOR ALGTTERE SICOGSH~GSICOLAN ROYAL COLLEGE OF FORESTRY STOCKHOLM Lord Keynes on the role of the economist: "He must study the present in the light of the past for the purpose of the future." Printed in Sweden by ESSELTE AB STOCKHOLM Foreword Forest Economy in the U.S.S.R. is a special study of the forestry sector of the Soviet economy. As such it makes a further contribution to the studies undertaken in recent years to elucidate the means and ends in Soviet planning; also it attempts to assess the competitive potentialities of the U.S.S.R. in international trade. Soviet studies now command a very great interest and are being undertaken at some twenty universities and research institutes mainly in the United States, the United Kingdoin and the German Federal Republic. However, it would seem that the study of the development of the forestry sector has riot received the detailed attention given to other fields. In any case, there have not been any analytical studies published to date elucidating fully the connection between forestry and the forest industries and the integration of both in the economy as a whole. Studies of specific sections have appeared from time to time, but I have no knowledge of any previous study which gives a complete picture of the Soviet forest economy and which could faci- litate the marketing policies of the western world, being undertaken at any university or college.

  • Torben Hansen Promotion of Forest Owner Cooperatives in Lithuania
    Promotion of forest owner cooperatives in Lithuania – Policy strategies to facilitate sustainable forest management Torben Hansen Supervisors: Vilis Brukas Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences Master Thesis no. 207 Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre Alnarp 2013 Promotion of forest owner cooperatives in Lithuania – Policy strategies to facilitate sustainable forest management Torben Hansen Supervisors: Vilis Brukas Examiner: Mattias Boman Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences Master Thesis no. 207 Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre Alnarp 2013 MSc Thesis in Forest Management – Euroforester Master Program, 30 ECTS, Advanced level (A2E), SLU course code EX0630 Abstract Forest owner cooperatives are often regarded as a policy vehicle to improve the management of private forests and facilitate entrepreneurship in the forest sector. This can be especially important for countries with economies in transition and recently restored private forest ownership. This study provides decision support and policy recommendations for the promotion of forest owner cooperatives in Lithuania. General characteristics of forest owner cooperatives and cooperative entrepreneurship are portrayed as well as the situation in private forestry in Lithuania. International case studies on forest owner cooperatives and public policies in their regard serve to derive elements and aspects of cooperation that are applicable elsewhere as well as concrete policy recommendations for the case of Lithuania. A variety of different entrepreneurial approaches of existing forest owner cooperatives is found to be applicable to Lithuania as well as different policy measures to promote them. Preferably a policy framework consisting of a complementary mixture of public services and financial support should be chosen for the Lithuanian case and implemented with sufficient financial and personnel capacity in order to achieve an effective policy impact.

Abstract More than half of Europe’s forests, not including Russia and other CIS countries, are privately owned. Private owners play a key role in sustaining forest ecosystems, enhancing rural development and supplying resources to markets. Nevertheless, a significant lack of knowledge remains on private forest ownership in Europe. A joint enquiry was conducted during 2006-2007 by the United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, the Ministerial Conference on the Protection of Forests in Europe (MCPFE, now Forest Europe) and the Confederation of European Forest Owners (CEPF) in an attempt to contribute to closing this knowledge gap. A questionnaire was addressed to 38 MCPFE member countries with records of private forestry. Twenty-three countries participated through submitting national reports, mostly for the year 2005: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Latvia, Lithuania, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.

    Research Article ii FF o o r r e e s s t t doi: 10.3832/ifor1834-009 Biogeosciences and Forestry Vol. 9, pp. 518-528 IUFRO division 8.02 – Mendel University Brno (Czech Republic) 2015 “Coppice forests: past, present and future” Editors: Tomas Vrska, Renzo Motta, Alex Mosseler Small forest parcels, management diversity and valuable coppice habitats: an 18th century political compromise in the Osnabrück region (NW Germany) and its long-lasting legacy Andreas Mölder This study underlines the often under-estimated importance of forest owner- ship and land tenure in European forest biodiversity studies which are crucial for the management, structure, and tree species composition of woodland. In particular it is assumed that, in regions with both state-owned forests and smaller private forests, the latter contain more relict habitats shaped by his- torical woodland management practices. A government decree of 1721, a poli- tical compromise, was crucial to the present-day woodland ownership pattern and distribution of woodland habitats in the Osnabrück region (northwest Ger- many). It resulted in the privatization of woodlands held in common for cen- turies and created a huge number of small, private forest parcels in the 18th century. These developments are discussed in relation to Europe-wide pro- cesses in forest affairs. Mainly due to the low economic importance of these forest parcels, as well as the individualism of the forest owners, coppice struc- tures providing valuable habitats have persisted until today. For instance, over-aged coppice stands provide important habitat conditions for saproxylic species and unique herbaceous layers. These valuable habitats must be pro- tected while creating new coppice stands to eventually take their place in future decades.

  • Global Forest Resources Assessment 2010 Country Report
    Forestry Department Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations GLOBAL FOREST RESOURCES ASSESSMENT 2010 COUNTRY REPORT GERMANY FRA2010/076 Rome, 2010 The Forest Resources Assessment Programme Sustainably managed forests have multiple environmental and socio-economic functions important at the global, national and local scales, and play a vital part in sustainable development. Reliable and up-to-date information on the state of forest resources - not only on area and area change, but also on such variables as growing stock, wood and non-wood products, carbon, protected areas, use of forests for recreation and other services, biological diversity and forests’ contribution to national economies - is crucial to support decision-making for policies and programmes in forestry and sustainable development at all levels. FAO, at the request of its member countries, regularly monitors the world’s forests and their management and uses through the Forest Resources Assessment Programme. This country report forms part of the Global Forest Resources Assessment 2010 (FRA 2010). The reporting framework for FRA 2010 is based on the thematic elements of sustainable forest management acknowledged in intergovernmental forest-related fora and includes variables related to the extent, condition, uses and values of forest resources, as well as the policy, legal and institutional framework related to forests. More information on the FRA 2010 process and the results - including all the country reports - is available on the FRA Web site (www.fao.org/forestry/fra

The first two sections describe the general situation and circumstances of forests and forestry in New Brunswick and Hesse, respectively, and the third section aims to compare the two forestry sectors to each other in more detail. The comparison shows several significant differences between the two forestry sectors in regard to forest management, forest governance, and factors influencing the economics of the respective forestry sectors. However, often it was not possible to find directly comparable data for Hesse and New Brunswick, which has several reasons. Therefore, the comparisons made in this report are of a relative nature, to see how much of an impact the forestry sector has on the economy and the people living in New Brunswick and Hesse.
