摘要：In Italy all wood related economic sectors operate in a highly disconnected forestrywood system with a fragmented and limited internal supply. Characteristic for Italian forests is a large amount of coppice and natural or semi-natural forests with a low utilisation rate. 60 % of the forests are privately owned, usually scattered without management plans. Only 1/3 of the annual increment is harvested. Lack of infrastructure makes access to forests difficult. In addition a strong regime of regulations and protected areas as well as a low mechanisation level make it difficult to harvest a sufficient volume of timber per surface unit. Work in forest enterprises is irregular, workers are often relatives and without professional education. Strict forest policy and low technological level lead to high harvesting costs and make domestic timber not competitive. Domestic production of wood is insufficient for industrial demand. Thus Italian forest industry is strongly dependent on the import of wood. Relevant volumes of timber come from high productive poplar plantations. Italy is a strong net-exporter of finished products (furniture). Italian market of forest industry is “mature”. Wood working industry consists mainly of small and medium size companies with high specialisation. Enterprises have long traditions and a large part is still handcraft The market demand of NWFP&S was increasing over the last years, especially for recreational and tourist services. Back to nature trends and the request of biological products caused an increasing demand on NWFP. Particularly they offer a remarkable source of income, which might exceed the value of wood (e.g. Truffle). For main NWFP well working networks of different kind of stakeholders along the production chain were created. Promotion of NWFP&S is often integrated in marketing efforts for other agricultural products and tourist attractions of the producing region. Some products are included in the certification system of agricultural products (e.g. Chestnut).
