Woodlands occupy over 18 million hectares (Mha) in Spain, the country with the third largest forest area in the European Union. However, only 34% of forest growth is harvested. In addition, there are 9 Mha of scrublands and pastures, which presents a huge opportunity for increasing these assets through productive investment in plantations.
The enhancement of the value of the forests through its sustained and sustainable exploitation (timber and wood, mushrooms, resin, pine nuts, chestnuts and truffles) contributes to its conservation and improvement.
