Non-wood forest products assist in landscape management
During the 9th Annual International Association for Landscape Ecology (IALE) World Congress, StarTree partners from the University of Padova, Italy, presented some of the project's results, focussing on how non-wood forest products and services can help to sustain landscape management in European mountain areas.
One of their main messages is that non-wood forest products can become flagship products for a specific area, linking local traditions and landscape in helping to complement rural incomes and sustain mountain land management.
The presentation "Non-wood forest products and services as a way to sustain landscape management in European mountain areas", produced by Giulia Corradini, Enrico Vidale, Riccardo Da Re and Davide Pettenella, is available online.
