Abstract

As a result of the research work, the structure of the organization of forestry management in the Russian Federation and its constituent entities, acting following the new forest code of the Russian Federation in 2006, was studied. Assessment of the effectiveness of the use of forests in the republic, a multiple correlation analysis was applied. As a result, it was revealed that in the Republic of Tatarstan, the primary income for the use of forests is accounted for by timber harvesting, the bulk of which is accounted for by the use of coniferous forest areas – 81 %, soft-leaved, and hard-leaved forests accounted for 14 % and 5 %, respectively. Taking into account the share of exploitable forests for the receipt of payments from the lease of forest plots for all types of use (harvesting and collection of non-timber forest resources; hunting; farming; recreational activities; geological exploration of mineral resources; development of mineral deposits; construction, reconstruction and operation of communication lines, roads, pipelines and other linear facilities; payment for the conversion of forest land to non-forest land and the transfer of forest land to lands of other categories) in the Republic of Tatarstan, the structure of forests by farms affects, and on the contribution to payments by type of use, soft-leaved farming brings 78 %, hard-leaved 12 % and coniferous 10 %.

Highlights

  • For any constituent entity of the Russian Federation, when planning forest territories, the consideration of natural factors is brought to the fore

  • The Republic of Tatarstan is a subject of the Russian Federation, where the total area of Tatarstan is 67.847 km2

  • No 68 “On approval of the list of forest growing zones and forest regions of the Russian Federation”, the territory of the Republic of Tatarstan refers to two forest growing zones: 1) a zone of coniferous-deciduous forests and 2) a forest-steppe zone

Summary

Introduction

For any constituent entity of the Russian Federation, when planning forest territories, the consideration of natural factors is brought to the fore. These natural factors are the terrain, hydrological and hydrogeological conditions, the geological structure of the landscape, the biodiversity of local flora and fauna (stocks and distribution of plant and animal species of economic and environmental importance), as well as the current presence and condition of forest infrastructure (road transport network, forest management structure and boundaries of functioning economic structures) [1,2,3]. The object of the study is the land belonging to the category of the forest fund land, located within the boundaries of the Subject of the Russian Federation – the Republic of Tatarstan. A complex combination of prevailing natural and economic conditions and their consideration in forest planning contributes to the most efficient organization of the territory, which leads to the rational, multipurpose and sustainable use of forests while ensuring its environmental sustainability, generating revenues to the budget of the Russian Federation and its subjects [1, 4].
