Improvement Plan of Forest Products and Establishment of Management Foundation for Economic Forest Regions : Focused on Hwapyeong and Jangsun Economic Forest Region in Korea

This study was conducted to provide reasonable information to establish the basic plan for the systematic management of the Hwapyeong ・ Jangsun economic forest region. The objective forest type for pine stand can be set for the timber production forest with excellent medium and large-diameter poles in the future through systematic management. And for larch and rigida stands, they could be set for the production of normal small-diameter and excellent medium-diameter logs, respectively. The cultivation areas of nuts should be enlarged for increasing the short-term income of forest products and the cultivation areas should be collectivized and enlarged to enhance competitive power. To build the management base of economic forest regions the forest road plan should be established to get to the level of fundamental forest road density. And for the efficient mechanization of forestry it is recommended to use the machines of the Jinan equipment support center. And the forestry labor should be secured by building the forestry labor database of economic forest regions and by developing a systematic training program
