Forest resources
The main forest-forming tree species in the Wymiarki Forest District is Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris). Other species cover small areas of land.
Silviculture
The planning of silviculture activities depends on the species habitat of the forest and its commercial forest stand type.
Forest protection
Forest protection is one of the fundamental areas of economic activity in forestry. It is to employ theoretical and practical knowledge to protect forests from detriment.
Forest use
The current reserves of wood in the Polish forests are estimated at 1.5 milliard m3. In the previous years, an average of 70 000 m3 of timber yearly has been harvested in the Wymiarki Forest District. Harvest cutting constitutes 40% of the amount. The rest comes from silvicultural activities which condition the correct growth and further development of forest stands. Through such use, abundance of our forests is constantly increasing.
Forest management
Forest management in State Forests is based on the Forest Management Plans created for the Forest District once per 10 years. They are prepared for the State Forests by specialised units, among others by The Bureau for Forest Management and Geodesy (Biuro Urządzania Lasu i Geodezji Leśnej, BULiGL). The Forest Management Plans are approved by Environment Minister after consultations with society.
