Abstract

Forests in our country are a very important component for the environment, considering the fact that they cover more then 1 031 000 ha or 36% of total Albania surface. 47% of the total timber volume comes from the utilization of beech forests. In our country beech forests are located in steep and very steep terrain. Taking into account the above facts silviculture and utilization study of these forests is of great interest to identify different conservation and development technologies. Is very important for the future the evaluation of new utilization technologies in the context of a sustainable forestry and silviculture considering the experience we have had in the past has not been very generous. This study has compared different utilization methodologies of beech forest in Albania and Italy. To identify the weak points of utilization works in Albania and the possibility of their improvement has also been of interest to evaluate the productivity of various working sub phases. This study aimed also the study of the actual infrastructure of Albanian beech forest which is very defective and needs maintenance.
