The objective of the study was to estimate the number of jobs created by sector of wood biomass used for the energy production. The study presents direct employment (the persons who are employed in the production of wood biomass, its harvesting, industry processing, transport or combustion), indirect employment (the employment in the related sections according to Polish Classification of Activites) and induced employment (the jobs created as a result of purchases of the persons directly employed in the biomass sector). The data used in the analyses were obtained from various official sources and statistics as well as previously published studies. The calculation included the whole area of Poland and focused on the data from the year 2012. The results lead to the conclusion that the direct employment in biomass sector in Poland in the year 2012 amounted 15.6 thousand jobs, of which 5.3 thousand in fuelwood harvesting and using. The indirect employment varied between 19 (by forestry sector) to 25 people (by public utilities sector) per 10 million PLN purchases by biomass sector. In turn, the induced employment amounted to 1.8 thousand employees, of which the largest share was observed for the education services section (29%), the manufactured products (19%), and human health services (17%).
The research concerned the implementation of tasks in the field of harvesting timber in 2008−2012 in pure pine stands aged 10−140. Numerical data from the SILP database were used for calculating the average price of timber in the intermediate harvest. The data on the volume harvested covered late cleaning, early thinning and late thinning. The assortment structure concerned the following groups of large− (WA0, WA1, WB0, WB1, WC0, WC1 and WD), medium− (S10, S11, S2A, S2B, S3A, S3B and S4) as well as small−sized (M1 and M2) assortment groups. The data on the size and value of wood assortments sold across the country concerned the year 2011 and were used to calculate the average price of wood in age subclasses according to the site quality described with site index class. Subsequently, for each site quality class polynomial equations of the trend line was determined and average timber price for each age subclass was calculated for small−, medium− and large−sized assortments. The analysis showed that S2 is the most frequently harvested assortment in the intermediate cuts in Scots pine stands, whose share depending on the site quality class is at the level of 65.7−72.7% of total harvest. The share of small−sized assortments decreases with age in all site quality classes. The opposite tendency is seen for large−sized assortments, whose share decreases with the deterioration of the site quality. Fraction of medium−sized assortments reaches its peak at the age of ca 45 in IA site index class and the shift in the peak with age is associated with the deterioration of the site quality. The higher the site quality, the higher the prices of assortments in the intermediate harvest. This trend occurs in all age subclasses.
Scots pine is the dominant forest tree species in Poland covering 58.0% of the forest area and constituting 61.1% of timber resources. Theoretically, all types of cuttings can be used in pine stands, but the purpose of the paper is to analyse the share of the main groups of assortments obtained from such stands with the use of: clear, group and gradual cuttings. It should be remembered that all types and forms of cutting are ideological, and the choice of a particular system should be determined by the silviculture goal. We used the data from the years 2012−2014 to conduct the research. The analysis covered Scots pine stands from all forest districts of the State Forests National Forest Holding, in which this species had a share of 80 to 100%. We analysed clear (I), group (III) and gradual (IV) cutting systems. Over 3.1 million hectares of mono−species pine stands was analysed. Numerical data was obtained from the database of the State Forests Information System. The studies took into account the assortments that actually occurred in a given subclass of age, divided into the type of cuttings, aggregated into three categories: small, medium and large−sized timber. In Poland, in mono−species Scots pine stands, mainly I and III cutting systems (about 97% of analysed stands) were used, the remaining types of treatments were sporadic. The largest share of harvest was characterized by the pulpwood assortment in harvesting I and III and the sawmill wood in the IV cutting system. With age, a decrease in the proportion of small−sized assortments and a gradual increase in the share of large−sized assortments was observed, while in the case of medium−sized assortments, the culmination of the share occurs at the age of 35−45 years, in all the analysed cutting systems. The course of the fraction of sub−classes in the case of large and medium−sized assortments in I and III cutting systems was similar.
The stand volume is one of the forest inventory characteristic determined during the field work aimed at planning operations in the tree stands. Determining the optimal rotation age is an important decision issue in the forest management. In turn, the key factor that determines the choice of the method for determining the rotation age of the tree stands is the production target. Depending on the rotation age, a specific structure of quantity, quality and dimensions of particular timber assortments is obtained. It seems reasonable that the economic rotation age is one of the main criteria taken into account when planning forest management in tree stands or forest district. The aim of the paper is to assess the impact of growing stock on determining the rotation age of Scots pine stands in particular site index classes. We compared the tabular (i.e. based on data from yield tables) and real (i.e. based on data from the Information System of the State Forests) volume of pine stands. The analysis was based on the forest description data, the amount of the harvested timber and economic data: timber price as well as the costs of harvesting, skidding and production of assortments. The optimal economic rotation age was determined as the point of intersection of the curve describing the average and current increment of the value of Scots pine stands. The research showed that the rotation age of stands is related to the site index class and whether real or tabular results are analysed. The optimal rotation age for Scots pine tree stands is lower in the real data model from 10 to 23 years from that calculated on the basis of tabular data.
Forests covered by various forms of nature protection are a popular resting place for the society. The choice of a certain place for the leisure depends not the attractiveness of the area, but also on its availability, the condition of the infrastructure, and on the preferences of tourists. The aim of the research was to determine the significance of the ‘Nad Tanwią’ nature reserve (‘NT’ NR) for tourism and recreational purposes. The following aspects were considered: the motives of arrival, forms of spending free time, frequency of visits and length of stay. The ‘NT’ NR is a landscape reserve with an area of 41.33 ha located in the Józefów Forest District (SE Poland). The research material consisted of the data from questionnaires collected in the survey conducted from May to September 2017 in the ‘NT’ NR. The research covered a group of 341 respondents. For statistical analysis we used Friedman ANOVA (with Davenport’s modification), chi−square function in the logarithmic form (so−called G function), Mann−Whitney and Kruskal−Wallis tests. The visitors most often came to the ‘NT’ NR mainly due to the need to rest (61% of respondents), interesting landscape (57%) and the proximity of the reserve from their place of residence (39%). Most tourists spent time on walks (50% of the time), trips (21%) and cycling (17%). The respondents visited the examined area on average over 11 times, and the average length of their stay was 3 days. Statistically significant differences in the needs and preferences depending on the social characteristics of the respondents were obtained. Inhabitants of the cities declare a greater need for tourism and recreation comparing to the rural residents. The ‘Nad Tanwią’ nature reserve is frequented by local population, therefore their needs in this area should be met. Hence the need for further research is to learn about their preferences in terms of necessary of infrastructure and tourist information. These factors contribute to the greater development of tourism and recreation, and ‘NT’ NR could be an example of a sylvatouristic product of this region.
