Forests and non wooden products in Italy

Abstract: Forests feed with their products over 1 billion people in the world by supplying with water, carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, fuels, medicines and maintain the natural balance for rural systems. While the world's agricultural diversity is based on no more than 20-30 animal and plant species, the forest provides thousands of plant forms for those who live near it.

“…Nevertheless, some important characteristics of coppices deserve to be safeguarded through a suitable silvicultural approach: (i) they provide wood products in short time; (ii) are strictly linked to the presence of human activities; (iii) supply very important non-wood forest goods (e.g., mushrooms, truffles, fruit berries); (iv) are established on marginal sites (Ducci et al 2015). To revitalize the coppice system, the silvicultural management should be a combination of different traditional and innovative options, according to site characteristics, stand structure, species composition, ecological efficiency, disturbance factors and societal and economic demand.…”

In the Austria federal land Tyrol, P. cembra accounts for about 2.3% of the usable trees in forestry (Landwirtschaftskammer Tirol 2014) and the price for its wood showed considerable fluctuations in the last years (Land 2018).…”
