Fresh look at the enhancement of forests
Part III: Inland transport prerequisite for enhancement of forests
Abstract
Petre Bradosche
The study reveals the constant gap between EU policy
and programs and their implementation in Romania.
Among others, two aspects are, particularly striking:
incomplete perception of the sustainable forest
management, reflected in the abandonment of private
forests (which are completely ignored by any concerns)
and the State Administration inability to create, before
accession, the necessary structures to benefit from the
measures to develop rural economy and forestry
provided by the EU after accession.
SAPARD funds granted before 2007, for the formation
of these structures were diverted or wasted and now
Romania is not ready to provide the necessary
.
documentation and as a result, most of the funds
(grants) allocated through the EAFRD are lost.
Private forest management is not encouraged and the
possibility of association of private owners in order to
find ways to improve their forests management is not
legislated and is therefore removed.
Rules for drafting management plans are not adopted for
sustainable management, as well as the ones for
construction of collection roads, which remained at the
level of the 1960’s.
In the third part is presented the importance of
collecting paths to achieve sustainable management and
how to access granted EU funds.
Keywords: forest roads, EU fonds, management.
