The Trade of Forest Products at the Transition to the third Millenium pdf HR EN | 489 | |
Summary: From the middle of the 20th century of the 2nd Millenium, the perception of forest of our planet is not any more exclusively connected for the wood as material for building, heating and similar. The methods have been developed for evaluation and measurement of overall values of forests as association of organic and anorganic world, which is absolutely required for the existence on the planet Earth. Measurements and calculations prove wood being in the total value of forests represent only a small part of the values the forest signifies in the maintenance of the vegetation and animal world, particularly for the human race, which being more numerous, and these, non-wood values, relatively grow at astonishing rate. Since the wood is a monetary product, its value being subject to market supply and demand, the influential benefits forests provide, are being valorised by a principle of costs for substitutes absolutely necessary for survival, becomes from day to day astonishingly higher. According to contemporary knowledge an essential reason for continuous devastation of forests at the global level are being considered as the conditions of forests ownership and state organization, i.e. division of rights and responsibilities between different actors. It is the conclusion of Interlaken Workshop held 27.–30. April 2004 in the Bern’s Oberland, dealing the problem of the decentralisation in the forest sector. Sponsorized by the Forest Forum of the UN, the subject of this most important problem has been discussed. Now and earlier, on the global level, about 70 % of the world’s forest area is claimed either by central or provincial governmental administration, regardless of the fact that these forests often and for long period are used and claimed by local authorities. By this ocasion the decentralisation in forestry has been designated as one of the most important keys for maintaining the Earth’s forest cover and sustained management of forests. Since the wood is just a small part of value forests as a living organism providing for the world, it is inadmissible to destruct it. Nevertheless that wood (including of course marketable by-products) at the market has a monetary value, in the least developed countries of the world forests are exposed to limitless cutting, and steady destructed, it remains an important material in the human life, in underdeveloped world mainly as fuel, in the developed world it is used for multiple use, and timber trade reflects the changes happening and turning more frequent, following the civilization’s progress. It was the point of the author, to profilize the development of timber trade, in order to stress the expectation of the future pressure on the biomass of forests, and exploring the methods to hinder forests to disappear, which is the suicidal menace to our whole planet. Some countries have in this regard collected nice experiences, the others, due to various difficulties, still keep behind. Measured by aequivalent of wood in the rough, the world’s production in 1996 was about 1.5 billion m3. The same year 749 million m3 or about an “ had been exported in various products based on wood. In 1963 only 20 % of the total of the rounwood production has been traded, 29 % in 1973, and in 1983 about 30 %. The exports of particular product groups developed oscillating as well. Taking the 1975 as the base year, the largest growth was in old paper (800 % in 2000). Papaer and paperboard in the same period has a 400 % growth. Wood based panels in the exports have grown from 100 % in 1975 to 450 % in the 2000, paper and paperboard have grown in exports in this period to 420 %, mechanical pulp to 240 %, the same as sawnwood. Such significant changes in relatively so short time suggest that timber and paper have been deeply involved in overall globalisation. The structure of various groups of wood products the world trade in the last decades has ben significantly changed. The said structure is shown in the Table 1. The main point of development moved from lower grades of manufacturing, of reproductive products to the products for final use, the trend still maintaining. Pulp and paper on the side of imports is dominating in the worldwide trade, having the share in the total value of almost 60 %. The timber trade trends indicate future development to higher share of commodities of final use.
