Résumé :
|
Forests should be planned and managed in a way which enhances the landscape. Given the impact of forestry on the landscape, in terms of aesthetics, environment and culture, measures are required which ensure overall positive results and avoidance of damage. The objectives of the FORESTRY AND THE LANDSCAPE GUIDELINES are as follows: To ensure a positive relatiànship between the forest and the character of a given landscape as a whole - to achieve balance of landcover. To optimise aesthetic effect through the integration of forests with landscape - to comblement landscape integrity. To minimise visual conflict and the Ioss of characteristics - to retain and/or increase existing character and diversity. To mitigate adverse impacts of forest operations, including harvesting - to mitigate visual conflict. The FORESTRY AND THE LANDSCAPE GUIDELINES have been developed through extensive consultation with a wide range of relevant parties.They set out round and practical measures based on the principles of Sustainable Forest Management (SFM), and are firmly rooted in the best available information. The guidelines will be kept under review to facilitate amendment in the light of new research findings.
