As presented in Chapter 01 of this Yearbook, ABRAF member companies' accumulated forest plantations increased 3.3%in 2007 compared to 2006. This growth is a result of planting (in own or outsourced land areas) and acquisition/merging of otherforest companies. However, the 2007 planting followed the planting area of 2006 (360,765 ha planted in 2006 and 358,972 in2007). As for the planting by species, eucalypt planting increased 0.7% while pine planting reduced 21.4%. In this way, theincrease of the total forest plantation area of ABRAF member companies in 2007 may be a result from acquisition of existingplanted forests from other non-ABRAF member companies, added to the total accumulated plantation area.Figure 2.04 shows the evolution of the annual planting area by planting type during the period 2006-2007 by ABRAFmember companies: forest expansion area (new planting) and forest reform. Reform decreased 12.3% in 2007 (a fall of 26.6thousand ha), compared to 2006, while new planting increased 16.9% during the period (24.8 thousand ha). It is important to5notice that some companies manage eucalypt forests by coppicing ; which, although not quantified in this Yearbook, contributeto the overall company' wood production/supply.Figure 2.04 Evolution of Annual Planting Area of ABRAF Member Companies by Type: New Planting and ForestReform (2006-2007)250,000214,144200,000150,000146,622171,463187,509100,00050,0000ha/year2006 2007New PlantingReformSource: ABRAF Member Companies; STCP, 2007.The increased eucalypt planting from 2000 to 2007, as showed in Figure 2.05, is a result of the continuous expansion ofown planting by ABRAF member companies, besides the growth of forest outgrower scheme and leased land area.As for pine, the decreasing trend of planting between 2000-2007 was marked by oscillation of planting in own areas byABRAF member companies, with a significant reduction of 44.3% over the period. Such situation results from decreased pineplanting or substitution of this species group by eucalypt, to meet their industrial strategies. On the other hand, some companies(ABRAF member and non-member) have expanded their annual pine planting. However, these expansions do not compensate thereduction in planting areas.415Coppicing does not result in increase of planted area although it impacts the forest management regime and the wood production.ABRAFSTATISTICALYEARBOOK 2008Base Year 2007

Figure 2.06shows also high productivity of hardwood species in Brazil (e.g., eucalypt) notably higher than those of Australia and Portugal.Figure 2.06 Comparison of Softwood and Hardwood Forest Productivity in Brazil and in Selected CountriesSoftwoodsHardwoodChapter 2423025201510503. m /ha year272010Brazil Uruguay USA40353025201510503. m /ha year38251Brazil Austrália Portugal13Source: STCP Database.1Eucalyptus spp (hybrid).ABRAFSTATISTICALYEARBOOK 2008Base Year 2007
