Forestry statistics - resources • Statistics Norway is main producer of forestry statistics • 3 persons work on this field • Almost 1,5 man-labour years in 2013 • No room for time-consuming development work • Decreasing resources in 2014
LEAN and standardisation • In 2014, LEAN will be a priority area in Statistics Norway • Lean is centered on preserving value with less work • creation of value for the end customer • elimination of waste • flow • We will take in use a new standard system for editing and correcting register data
What is the result of new property data • The number of forest properties increased • Mostly small properties • Mostly from the northern and western part of Norway • Mostly broad-leaved forest • New and better statistics on areas • Total property area for the first time • Productive forest and unproductive forest area (forest) • Other area categories (inland water, wetland, open firm ground etc) • Main species of tree (conifer, broad-leaved, mixed) • Better data on type of owner
The share of properties with commercial roundwood removals. 2003-2012. Co-ownership and the remainder
Further challenges - forest properties • Forest area not connected to a certain property (170 000 ha productive forest, 370 000 ha unproductive forest) • Site quality - low quality in the northern counties • Too small area of productive forest • Updating of digital maps • Each municipality is responsible • Quality of inland water on property level is still poor • Boundaries not clear • 4,9 million ha of wetland, bare rock and open firm ground has no certain owner in the cadastre
Other issues • Why have only 2 in 5 forest properties cut for sale during the last 15 years? • Cooperation with Norwegian University of Life Sciences • Postal sample survey to 3 000 individual forest owners • 1 500 without commercial removal the last 15 years • 1 500 with commercial removal the last 15 years • The main objective is to find out why a majority of forest owners have not cut roundwoodfor sale during the last 15 years • What action must be done to make them active? • Prices • Use of policy instruments • Information and advisory service • Etc.
Other issues In Norway: Annual increment in productive forest 23 mill m3 Annual roundwood removal: 11 mill m3 The government want to increase annual removal. Where should this increased harvesting take place? We plan to do an analysis of annual increment vs harvesting • by species of tree • by regional level
GIS-analyses – some issues • Distance to forest roads • Productive forest area • Average distance • Maximum distance • Strips of field at forestry properties • number • distance between
Strips of field at forestry properties -number and distance between
