Agricultural use of forests. On approval of the rules for the use of forests for agriculture

forest resources world and the USSR as of January 1, 1966 are characterized by the followingfollowing data (Tables 1 and 2).

Thus, about a third of the land is covered with forests. itsays that the forest in human life is of great importance. In economic terms, about one third of the entire area has been developedforests; the remaining areas are represented by unproductive forestsor located in hard to reach places.


Our country is the richest country in the world with forests: itsterritory contains one-fifth of the world's forest area and a third part of the developed forests. The USSR hosts more than one third of the world'swood reserves and about half of the most valuable wood of coniferousnye breeds (Table 2).

forest fund Soviet Union is 1236 million hectares, includingthe area under forest is 797 million hectares. The rest of the area is occupied by swamps, water spaces, rocky outcrops, etc. On a hugeOn the territory of our country, forests are distributed extremely unevenly, mainly due to the climatic features of the zone. Such a timeDisplacement of forests affects the nature of their use in the interests ofstate, taking into account the value of individual forest areas and the possibilityfeatures of their operation. In this regard, the forest area in our countrydivided into three groups of national importance: Igroup - 14.7%; II - 6,9; III - 78,4%.

To Ithe group includes forests: state reserves, soilprotective in the mountains and floodplains, green areas around populated areas,resort, forbidden strips along rivers, lakes and reservoirs, flaxprecise pine forests in the steppes of Western Siberia, field-protective forest belts,forest splits and ravine forests in the steppe zone, etc. Forestry in these forests is aimed at their conservation, maintaining a good sanitary condition, preserving and creating properties that meet the requirements of the intended purpose. Logging is only allowed here.in the order of forest care and reforestation on the plots, reachedof their natural ripeness, i.e., beginning to die off.

In IIgroup includes water protection forests in the basins of the main rivers of the European part of the USSR and Central Asia. Forestry in these forests is aimed at their conservation, improvement of water protection properties and cultivation of high-quality timber. Water protectionThe benefits of the forest lie in its ability to replenish soil reserves. water as a result of the transfer of surface water runoff into groundwater, due to which the rivers can be fed evenly throughout the year. Oncemeasures of logging in each forest area is limited here by the magnitudenoah average annual growth of wood.

To IIIthe group includes all other forests with mainlyindustrial value. In these forests, the size of cuttings is not limited and determined by the needs of the national economy of the country in timber.

Wood consumption in the national economy of the country is growing fromyear to year. The volume of harvesting compared with 1913 has increased by about 5 times, including commercial timber by 8 times. To presentto see for yourself what needs wood is spent on, consider foran example of its consumption in 1965. In total, 405 million m 3 were harvested timber (with deforestation on an area of ​​2.5 million hectares). Harvestedwood is divided into firewood and business. Output of business wood sosaccounts for about 70% of the total volume of timber harvesting. Consumption matterhowling timber for domestic needs of the country amounted to 250.6 million m 3and 25.8 million m 3 were exported.

Wood consumption for domestic needs had the followingstructure (in million m 3): capital construction - 51.7, production and operational needs - 153.7, needs of collective farms and the populationniya - 23.6, other local needs - 21.6.

In capital construction, wood is used in the form of sawn timber and round timber. Production and operationThis consumption is very diverse, namely (in million m 3): cellulose and wood pulp - 16.6, mine rack -21.3, sleepers - 11.0, plywood and matches - 6.5, containers - 24.5, furniture - 10.0, repair needs - 35.4, other production needs - 25,8.

In addition, from waste wood obtained during its processing(sawdust, wood chips, etc.), wood-based panels are produced, used for furniture and housing construction.

A great future belongs to the use of wood as a raw material for chemical processing. Currently on this based on a number of industries.

The pulp and paper industry produces pulp, paper, and cardboard. In turn, cellulose is used to obtainartificial fibers and fabrics (wool, silk, etc.).

The hydrolysis industry mainly uses woodwaste (sawdust, shavings, wood chips, etc.), after the processing of which a variety of products necessary for the national economy are obtainedstva. For example, from 1 ton of wood you can get ethyl alcohol 180 l, fodder yeast 40 kg, furfural 6 kg, liquid carbon dioxide 70 l, dry lignin 350 kg and a number of other substances.

When tapping, pines and larches annually harvest up to 200 thousand tonsresin (resin), which is processed into rosin, turpentine, resins and other types of products that are of great importance in the perfumery and paint and varnish industries. In the wood chemical industryproduction also produces acetic acid, tar, coal, tanninssubstances and many other products.

The data presented give some idea of ​​the volume, importance and wide variety of wood consumption in the nationaleconomy. The importance of the forest as a source of wood will increase more and more with the development of new branches of wood chemical processing.springs. Consumption of wood for the needs of the chemical industrythe future belongs to the future, but this does not mean that the wood in itsnatural form will lose its value.

Wood harvesting is traditionally considered the main type of field.forest management. In addition, there is a side use of the forestfor collecting fruits, berries, mushrooms, medicinal raw materials, as well as inpasture, haymaking, etc.

In addition to the main and secondary use of the forest, there is a third type of use - forest reclamation: to improve the watercrops and climate, protection of crops from dry winds, and soil from wind and water erosion, to protect iron and roads from snow and sand drifts, mudflow control(mud-stone streams) in mountainous areas, for health improvement and decoration of populated areas. This type of forest use is acquiredis becoming more and more widespread, and it has been given national importance in our country. Of particular value is the useforest reclamation in agriculture, which is the subject of this book.

Forests can be used for haymaking, grazing of farm animals, beekeeping, reindeer herding, growing crops and other agricultural activities.

Use of forest plots for maintenance Agriculture carried out in accordance with the forest plan of the subject Russian Federation and forestry regulations of the forestry. At the same time, farming in green areas and forest parks is prohibited, and the use of forest plots for farming should not interfere with the right of citizens to freely and free of charge stay in forests.

Citizens and legal entities using forests for agriculture have the right to:

Receive information about a forest plot transferred for permanent (perpetual) use, gratuitous fixed-term use or for rent;

Place beehives and apiaries in forest areas, erect fences, sheds and other temporary structures;

Have other rights that do not contradict the requirements of the legislation of the Russian Federation.

Persons using forests for agriculture are obliged to:

To draw up, when providing forests for permanent (perpetual) use or lease, a forest development project;

To carry out the use of forests in accordance with the forest development project and the forestry regulations of the forestry (forest park);

Prevent harm to the health of citizens, the natural environment;

Prevent soil erosion when using forests, exclude or limit negative impacts on the state and reproduction of forests, as well as on the state of water and other natural objects;

Follow the rules fire safety, rules for sanitary safety, rules for reforestation and rules for forest care;

Submit an annual report on use, conservation, protection and reproduction;

Provide in without fail documented information for maintaining the state register;

Perform other duties prescribed by law.

For haymaking, non-forest lands are used, as well as unafforested cutting areas, clearings and other lands not covered with forest vegetation until reforestation is carried out on them. In necessary cases, suitable for this purpose, areas of low-value plantations that are not planned for reconstruction can be used for haymaking.

For grazing farm animals, non-forest lands, unafforested cutting areas, clearings, clearings and other lands not covered with forest vegetation are used until reforestation is carried out on them.

Grazing of farm animals is not allowed in the areas:

Occupied by forest plantations, natural young stands of valuable species, plantations with developed viable undergrowth until they reach a height that excludes the possibility of damage to the tops by livestock;

Selective forest seed, pine, spruce-fir, willow, hardwood, walnut plantations;

With projected measures for natural reforestation and reforestation of coniferous and hardwood species;

With easily eroded and dispersed soils. Farm animal owners provide:

Fencing of livestock passes or pastures to avoid damage to forest crops, nurseries, young stands of natural origin and other valuable forest areas;

Grazing of farm animals by a shepherd (with the exception of grazing in fenced areas or on a leash).

Goat grazing is allowed only in forest areas previously fenced by the owner or on a leash.

3. As a food base for honey bees, forest areas are used, on which honey plants are present in the tree, shrub or grass-shrub layer. Forest plots for the placement of beehives and apiaries are provided primarily on the edges of the forest, clearings and other lands not covered with forest vegetation.

4. For reindeer breeding, forest areas of forest areas located within the forest zone of near-tundra forests, sparse taiga and taiga forest zone are used as a food base. At the same time, the protection of the original habitat of the indigenous peoples of the North, Siberia and the Far East and their traditional way of life should be ensured.

In forest areas provided for reindeer herding, pasture rotation is used, which does not lead to deterioration of the ground cover and soil surface of such areas.

5. For growing crops and other agricultural activities, non-forest lands, unafforested cutting areas, clearings and other lands not covered with forest vegetation are used until reforestation is carried out on them. When growing crops and other agricultural activities, chemical and biological preparations are used in accordance with the federal law "On the safe handling of pesticides and agrochemicals".

New Rules for the use of forests for agriculture, approved by the order of the Federal Forestry Service dated December 5, 2011 No. 509, have been registered with the Ministry of Justice. The rules have not yet been officially published and have not entered into force. According to the Forest Forum of Greenpeace Russia, the new rules are very close to the old ones, approved by the order of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Russian Federation dated May 14, 2010 No. 161. In fact, the adoption of new rules has an exclusively bureaucratic meaning: since now the approval of forest norms and rules falls within the competence of the Federal Forestry Agency, and not the Ministry of Agriculture, one of these departments accepts new documents, the other cancels the same old ones, and it seems like everyone is in business. Most likely, in May 2012 the system federal bodies executive power will change again, and the process of re-approval of forest standards will start from the beginning, predicts the Greenpeace Russia Forest Forum.

The more or less significant differences between the new rules and the old ones include the following (in fact, the new wording of the rules duplicates the norms of the Forest Code and other legal acts, which are already considered valid).

1. Instead of a clear wording of the old rules concerning the access of citizens to forests used for agriculture, the new rules simply give the wording from Article 11 of the Forest Code of the Russian Federation. The old rules stated that "the use of forest plots for agriculture should not, in accordance with Part 1 of Article 11 of the Forest Code of the Russian Federation, interfere with the right of citizens to freely and free of charge stay in the forests." The new ones state that "citizens have the right to freely and free of charge stay in forests and for their own needs to harvest and collect wild fruits, berries, nuts, mushrooms, other forest resources suitable for human consumption (food forest resources), as well as non-timber forest resources" (this phrase is borrowed from the Forest Code, and therefore does not carry any new semantic load).

2. In accordance with the new Rules, persons engaged in the use of forests for agriculture are obliged to "carry out sanitary and recreational activities (cutting down dead and damaged forest plantations, cleaning forests from littering, pollution and other negative impacts) in accordance with paragraph 4 parts 1 article 55 of the Forest Code of the Russian Federation".

3. The new rules clarify that persons who use forests for agriculture are required to "comply with the requirements of paragraph 13 of the Rules for fire safety in forests approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of June 30, 2007 No. forest users are obliged to comply with the norms for the availability of means of preventing and extinguishing forest fires, keeping the means of preventing and extinguishing forest fires in readiness during the fire season, as well as taking possible measures to prevent the spread of a forest fire when it is detected in the corresponding forest area.
