Resumen
Descripción
The importance of forest plantations in meeting the needs for future wood supplies as well as providing other services is well recognized, but few issues are more contentious than that of the role of species of the genus Eucalyptus in forestry plantation programmes. The objectives of the Regional Consultation were therefore to review the evidence for or against the use of the eucalypts in given situations by bringing together the growers of eucalypts, the users of the wood of eucalypts, those who research into all aspects of its environmental, economic and social effects, and those who are affected positively or negatively by Eucalyptus plantations, to discuss their experiences. The first volume (Volume I) contains the proceedings of the Consultation: resource papers, record of discussions and recommendations. This volume (Volume II) contains the papers submitted by government and international organizations, NGOs and private companies.
