Certification in forestry
1996
Krajcic, D. (Ljubljana Univ. (Slovenia). Biotechnical Fac., Forestry Dept.)
The paper is concerned with the current state of certification in forestry. Close-to-nature forest management, forest protection and reduced adverse human impacts on the forest and the environment are of topical interest today. One of the tools of close-to-nature forest management is certification of a forest, a forest enterprise and a timber producer. The system is based on the mechanism of marketing. At present, there are three approaches to certification in Europe, which are all but one still in the preparatory phase. The paper argues that certified products will have a better position in the market, which will enable them to achieve higher prices. At the same time the author underlines that the field is still in a relatively unfinished state with many drawbacks.
