This book was released on 1999 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report reviews commercial and non-commercial non-timber forest products in Ontario, beginning with an introduction discussing the kinds of such products and their importance. Non-timber products are reviewed in the following categories: food products such as maple products, berries, honey, mushrooms, nuts, and wild rice; herbal & personal care products such as medicinal plants; materials & manufacturing products, including specialty wood products and essential oils; environmental products such as fuel wood, biological pesticides, and recycled wood waste; landscape & garden products such as landscape plans, mulches, and soil amendments; and decorative & aesthetic products such as Christmas trees, floral & foliage products, cones, and Native crafts. Issues associated with the development of non-timber forest products are then discussed, including sustainability, health & safety, and economic viability. Finally, recommendations are made that may help to advance the non-timber forest sector in Ontario.

Download or read book The bioeconomy and non timber forest products written by Carsten Smith-Hall and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-12-16 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides the first in-depth investigation of how non-timber forest products are an integral part of local, national, and global bioeconomies. While the plants and fungi that produce non-timber forest products are essential to the sustainability of forest ecosystems, peoples' food and livelihood security and sovereignty, and thus the bioeconomy, are often absent from bioeconomic strategies. Presenting a selection of empirical cases from around the world that engage with the bioeconomy and non-timber forest products, this volume reveals how essential these products are to creating a greener and more sustainable future, how to to better integrate them into efforts to transition to and expand the bioeconomy, and how such efforts can be supported and developed. Chapters analyse how and to what degree non-timber forest products promote sustainable resource use, generate employment, and contribute to food and livelihood security and poverty alleviation. The volume develops approaches and identifies interventions and policies to support the integration of non-timber forest products into bioeconomy strategies, including in national reporting schemes to provide recommendations for future research and practical implementation. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars of forest and natural resource management, bioeconomics, circular economy and ecological economics more widely. It will also be of interest to professionals working in sustainable development and the forestry sector.

This book was released on 2018-08-24 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nontimber forest products (NTFPs) are fundamental to the functioning of healthy forests and play vital roles in the cultures and economies of the people of the United States. However, these plants and fungi used for food, medicine, and other purposes have not been fully incorporated into management, policy, and resource valuation. This report is a forest-sectorwide assessment of the state of the knowledge regarding NTFPs science and management information for U.S. forests and rangelands (and hereafter referred to as the NTFP assessment). The NTFP assessment serves as a baseline science synthesis and provides information for managing nontimber forest resources in the United States. In addition, this NTFP assessment provides information for national-level reporting on natural capital and the ecosystem services NTFPs provide. The report also provides technical input to the 2017 National Climate Assessment (NCA) under development by the U.S. Global Change Research Program (USGCRP).

Download or read book The Design of Protocols for the Sustainable Harvest of the Non timber Boreal Forest Products Acorus Americanus and Vaccinium Angustifolium written by and published by . This book was released on 1907 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Non-timber forest products (NTFP) are all biological materials, other than timber, which are removed from natural or managed forests for human use or consumption (Peters 1994, Broekhoven 1996). In recent decades, NTFP have been viewed as a means of conserving, managing and optimizing tropical forest ecosystems while still providing economic benefits to local residents (Wickens 1991, Hall and Bawa 1993, Salick 'et al'. 1995, Velasquez Runk 1998). NTFP may provide similar opportunities and advantages to aboriginal Canadians living in the boreal forests of Canada. Therefore, protocols for establishing sustainable harvesting levels were designed and tested for two NTFP, 'Acorus americanus' and 'Vaccinium angustifolium ', in association with aboriginal communities of Manitoba and Ontario as a means of conserving, monitoring and optimizing boreal forest ecosystems. This was the first study to examine the effects of various harvesting intensities on 'V. angustifolium' and 'A. americanus '. In accordance with expectations, 'A. americanus' rhizome dry mass, shoot density and percent cover decreased as harvesting intensity increased. This was expected since the rhizome, the organ harvested for its medicinal values, is the primary means for propagation. Suggestions were made for modification to the monitoring protocols for 'A. americanus ' developed in this study. Monitoring different harvesting levels of 'V. angustifolium' for two years produced unexpected results. This project is the first to examine effects of various harvesting levels on blueberry production. As harvesting intensity increased, mass, volume and berry density tended to decrease among harvested treatments. Interestingly, harvesting some (30%) or most (70%) of the berries may have had a stimulatory effect on berry density, resulting in an apparent increased yield compared with the control or the 100% harvesting intensity. Recommendations were also made to improve the monitoring protocols for 'V. angustifolium'
