Administrative Forestry Enterprise the Territory of Far Eastern Federal District Based on the Results of 2020

Abstract

The Far Eastern Federal District (FEFD) of the Russian Federation (RF) includes 11 constituent entities with a total area of 555.3 million hectares, which is 48.5% of all forest lands in the country. Stock of wood forest plantations in the Far Eastern Federal District are 31% of the total stock of the Russian Federation, and ripe and over maturity stands prevail here. Most of the forests of the Far Eastern Federal District are boreal forests, which are known to be the regulator of the planet’s climate. The process of intensive development of natural forests in this area can lead to the release of large amounts of carbon. The unique biogeography of the region has led to a combination of unique species of flora and fauna in a single ecosystem, and, unfortunately, most of the commercial forests are concentrated in the same area. Exhausting forest management practices reduce the many interrelated protective and ecological functions of forests of local, regional and global importance. The implementation of the state policy in the field of forestry in this area is under the jurisdiction of the Department of Forestry for the Far Eastern Federal District. The current state of forestry and plans for its management are reflected in the reports of the official statistics of the department. First of all, at the state level, it is recognized that there are no relevant forest inventory materials on a part of the territory. The indicator of the availability of a stock of seeds for reforestation purposes has been fulfilled by 51.5% of the plan; the shortage of seeds of small-coniferous species is of concern. Extinguishing forest fires takes place in a controlled area, here the burning rate continues to remain last year, and the area covered by the fires increases in area. Forest fires are not extinguished in uncontrolled areas. An important problem in the region is crimes committed in the field of violations of forest legislation, namely, illegal logging of forest plantations is of an organizational nature. With all the natural uniqueness of the territory under consideration, economic activity here is fraught with a number of difficulties, which it is not possible for the executive authorities to solve on their own. Special attention should be paid to forestry in the Far Eastern Federal District.
