Sales Christian. 2005. Impact of sustainable harvesting procedures on the wood chain in tropical countries. International Forestry Review, 7 (5), Résumé : 174. IUFRO World Congress. 22, Brisbane, Australie, 8 Août 2005/13 Août 2005.
Résumé : The new procedures in forestry sustainable management are mainly based on an increase of the harvested volume per surface unit to reduce the environmental impact of logging. It is considered that taking into account an ecological point of view, it is less damaging for a forest to cut more trees in a small area than a few trees on a large area. In many tropical rainforests this evolution is changing timber production in terms of species and log quality. The impact on the wood chain in tropical countries is important and strongly related to the type of forest and domestic market demand. For some countries or regions, the adaptation is quite easy. For others, the wood chain should search for new markets, new kinds of manufactured forest products, and will need important investment to adapt its processes of transformation to the new timber resource.
