The adopted rotation age and prescribed cut are found not to be fully respected at any stage of regulation, planning and implementation of cutting plans. As a result, timber, the main crop in forestry, is not uniform in terms of rotation age and fails the adopted criteria of crop maturity. Protective forests are not subject to management unless cut determination derives from silvicultural needs, without...
Paper evaluates the conditions that affect the functioning of the timber market and its role in the development of forestry and timber industry during the ninety−year−history of the State Forests. Four periods were distinguished, which, according to the authors, correspond to the key stages of development of the Polish State: the interwar period (1918−1938), the period of the Second World War (1939−1945),...
The paper presents determination of the rotation age in Scots pine stands of 1st site index class on the example of Pisz Forest District (northern Poland). The development of quantitative and qualitative changes in the structure of 10 stands, forming a homologous series ranged between 40 and 130 years was the basis for determining their rotation age. Stand maturity for cutting was determined taking...
Maintaining biological diversity is one of the main goals of modern forestry. To reach this objective we need to know how management practices affect forest species. This study summarizes the results published in papers on the influence of clear−cutting on small mammals. Most of the studied species increased in abundance on clear−cuts. The response of voles (Microtus agrestis and M. arvalis) was uniformly...
The paper compares direct economic and financial instruments used for promoting the multifunctional forest management in the Czech Republic (CR) and in Poland. In both countries subsidies are the most significant instruments of support. They come from the state budgets, the EU resources, as well as from public ecological funds. The other common instruments used are: compensations (CR), tax concessions,...
The aim of the paper was to develop a concept of private−public forest company. Suggested management model in private forests differs significantly from the one that is currently functioning. General partnership as business entity was analysed. Concept of partnership was developed and assumptions necessary for its functioning were considered.
