Considering the present state of afforestation and reforestation management in
Romania, the process of renewing the forestation paradigm is analysed. Most of the
management systems use an iterative method of improving the outcomes. Considering
the classical phases Plan-Do-Check-Adjust, the forest management system is broken into
pieces in order to reveal potential gaps from planning to system adjustments regarding
forestation in Romania. The official data reports, national statistics and forest regulations
represent evidences of a system that fails to progress. The weak integration of PanEuropean criteria and indicators for sustainable forest management, the lack of a robust
planning system and the poor capacity of accessing European funds are considered major
gaps. The whole framework of afforestation and reforestation should be revised to
comply with recent realities and objectives (social, economic, environmental). At present
time Romanian forest management still forges tomorrow’s forests using regulations
fitted to communist era, without taking into account updated objectives regarding social
needs, economic benefits, climate change mitigation or the new types of property.
Several suggestions for improving the afforestation and reforestation framework were
provided.
