“…Historically, Russian forest management was an extensive model focused on continuous exploitation of the territories, which reached natural limits and led to decreased forest resources and ecological decline, due to an inherent lack of management. Such an overarching management model does not meet the goals for sustainable forest management, based on a balance of economical, ecological and social interests [111,112]. A diversity of habitats, and complex species and age structures of Russian forests, implies a vast diversity of NWFP resources and this requires acknowledgement as a basis for sustainable forest management [49,50].…”

Purpose of Review This review provides perspectives and insights of forest researchers from four continents representing a range of geo-regions, with examples from diverse and dynamic use of forest products that are undervalued and often misrepresented. A comprehensive discussion of the subject provides special attention to property, tenancy, public goods and access rights to non-wood forest products (NWFP), seen as forest ecosystem services in a framework for forest management decisions. The overall purpose is to provide a logical argument for transitioning to sustainable management of forests for timber and NWFP. Recent Findings Multifunctional ecosystem-based approaches are transforming our understanding of forests. The prevailing economic relevance of NWFP for trade and sustenance requires their operative integration into forest management. Integration of NWFP will shift a traditional timber-oriented management paradigm towards an inclusive ecosystem forest management approach. We show that the impact of NWFP resources on livelihoods provides multiple benefits to all sectors of global society. Policy and property rights affect the availability and sustainability of the resource, while regulations, restrictions and prohibitions target the sustainable harvest of NWFP under growing demand. Official reporting of production volumes of NWFP is sparse, erratic or inaccurate due to a complex system that is opaque and with inadequately understood value chains, yet research is underway to better understand all NWFP sectors. Summary A shift from command-and-control forest management to broader governance schemes is observed, yet despite a growing awareness of their importance, NWFP and their potential for a bio-based economy require more research. A conceptual framework for transitioning to sustainable co-production management of timber and NWFP is presented. Such a transition is needed to ensure long-term forest security, health and resilience.

“…Dėl konkurencijos pasaulio rinkoje su kitais medienos turėtojais Rusija turi orientuotis į priėmimą pačių aukščiausių aplinkosaugos ir socialinių sertifikavimo standartų, kiek tai leis išsaugoti dalyvavimą pasaulinėje medienos rinkoje dėl lėtai augančios Taigos. Teplyakov (2011) ir Kuzminov (2013) teigimu, atsižvelgiant į didžiulius aukštos kokybės miškų plotus, Rusija bando pritraukti daugiau investicijų į miškų sektorių vidaus medienos apdorojimui, kad būtų užpildyti regioniniai ir federalinai biudžetai ir galima būtų sukaupti daugiau lėšų miškų apsaugai ir reabilitacijai. 70 % visų kertamų miškų yra paskirstyta Tolimūjų Rytų regione.…”

Straipsnyje nagrinėjamos pagrindinės medienos verslo sektoriaus plėtros problemos ir galimybės, įvertinus klimato kaitą, ekologinius pokyčius bei energetinių resursų išteklius. Atlikta išsami pagrindinių medienos gaminius eksportuojančių šalių – JAV, Rusijos, Švedijos, Suomijos veiklos analizė ir nustatyti pagrindiniai medienos pramonei įtaką darantys išoriniai veiksniai, augimo modeliai, aplinkos apsaugos problemos, verslo pokyčių ir sėkmės atvejai. Darbe pateikiama Lietuvos medienos pramonės situacija, pagrindinės verslo šakos plėtros problemos ir pateikiami darnios verslo plėtros pasiūlymai, atitinkantys šiuolaikines rinkos tendencijas. Trumpalaikėje perspektyvoje medienos perdirbimo verslas gali būti plėtojamas pritaikant beatliekinį gamybos modelį, automatizuojant gamybos procesus, plačiau naudojant atsinaujinančią energiją, alternatyvias medžiagas.

“…Employing data from the Statistics Division of the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations (FAOSTAT), this figure clarifies the high‐level Russian–Chinese bilateral timber trade flows from 1997 to 2010, and reveals high levels of consistency in reporting of international timber trade with very little discrepancy in the annual data. Although much work exists in examining the illegal nature of this bilateral timber trade (e.g., Teplyakov ; Vandergert and Newell ), these data are also important in that they clearly reveals a growing trend of increasing legal timber trade from 1997 to 2006 as reported by Russia and China. The complementarity of Russia's and China's bilateral timber trade figures from 2005 to 2010 can be seen as one way in which China and Russia are both trying to “play by the rules” and gain international legitimacy by standardizing their data reporting within the United Nations' FAO framework.…”

Relying primarily on English language scholarship, this paper seeks to highlight the dynamics of China's economic integration beyond its borders as Chinese economic actors extend their search for commodities-in this case into the Russian Federation for timber products. The paper considers the shifts in the political economy of Russian forestry exports from a predominantly domestic and Japan-focused trade during the 1947-1991 Cold War era to a north-south trajectory increasingly emphasizing trade with China from 1993 to 2010. Chinese and Russian bilateral trade data, acting as a barometer of national forestry-related policies, highlight the economic convergence and benefits brought to both the Russian and Chinese timber sectors over the past two decades. Far from being an environmentally deterministic processone based on the physical geographic characteristics on the ground in both of these states-this binational commodity trade shows that the geography of the Russia-China forest product trade is highly dynamic, temporally variable, and intimately intertwined with national political and economic considerations.
