| Tiivistelmä: | For 60 years the Chilean government studied, promoted, managed, and subsidized plantations; it bribed, cajoled, and threatened landowners to plant trees; it funded, nationalized, and privatized the industries to process them and then nationalized and privatized them again. The policies were contradictory in their particulars, but consistent in the qovernment's commitment to the forestry sector. Some policies were ineffective, others were effective but blunted by contradictory policies, and at least one was stunningly succesful - the 75 percent reforestation subsidy established in 1974. In a generation Chile has created one of the world's most competitive forest resources, at a relatively low environmental cost. It is not a natural forest capable supporting multiple use, but as an economic forest it is almost a masterpiece. |
