Sustainable Forestry Management
Sustainable Forestry Management (SFM) is a balanced approach to managing forest resources. It aims to meet current needs for timber, wildlife, and recreation while ensuring that forests remain healthy and resilient for future generations. This involves practices like selective logging, protecting biodiversity, and restoring damaged ecosystems. By considering environmental, economic, and social aspects, SFM helps preserve the rich benefits forests provide, such as clean air, water, and habitat for wildlife, while supporting the livelihoods of communities that depend on them. Essentially, it’s about using forests wisely and responsibly.
