Лісогосподарське землекористування реґіону, проблеми та перспективи

Abstract

У статті розглядаються актуальні питання використання лісових угідь у регіоні та обґрунтовуються напрямки його вдосконалення. Проаналізовано основні екологічні, економічні та правові аспекти управління лісовими угіддями. Особлива увага приділяється використанню сучасних технологій, інституційним змінам та залученню місцевих громад до управління лісовими ресурсами. Запропоновано практичні рекомендації щодо забезпечення сталого розвитку лісового господарства в контексті кліматичних викликів та курсу України на європейську інтеграцію.

In the context of increasing environmental violations in the forest sector, it is necessary to apply adaptive approaches to forest management that would take into account all driving forces and limiting factors. That is, changes of an ecological and socio-economic nature in forestry land use require the study of indicators in dynamics, taking into account their reaction to the influence of various factors and interrelationships. The intensity and direction of these changes require constant assessment and analysis of the impact of management decisions on the regional forest sector. Despite the fact that a significant amount of research is aimed at activating positive factors and mitigating the negative consequences of forestry land use, the problem of ensuring balanced forestry land use remains relevant. This necessitates further research on improving management tools that will create a scientific basis for achieving environmental policy goals at the regional level. The purpose of the study is to identify areas for improving the management of forestry lands, taking into account the balance of ecological and socio-economic aspects of forestry land use. A review of the scientific literature indicates that in the coming decades the forest sector will undergo significant transformations caused by global shifts in the use of natural resources. The article examines current issues of forest land use in the region and substantiates directions for its improvement. The main ecological, economic, and legal aspects of forest land management are analyzed. Special attention is paid to the use of modern technologies, institutional changes, and the involvement of local communities in the management of forest resources. Practical recommendations are proposed to ensure the sustainable development of forestry in the context of climate challenges and Ukraine's course toward European integration. It was determined that in the future we should expect a more active implementation of innovative technologies in monitoring the state of forests, in particular remote sensing, geographic information systems, automated management systems. At the same time, the importance of public participation and transparency in decision-making will increase, which is an important requirement of European environmental policy. The development of forestry land use should also be focused on expanding the environmental protection functions of forests, supporting green tourism, environmental education, and restoring degraded areas in priority ecosystems. Thus, the prospects for the development of forestry land use in Ternopil region are based on the integration of adaptive nature management, environmental responsibility, digital transformation and European approaches to resource management. This creates opportunities for strengthening environmental security, developing rural areas and increasing the role of Ukraine in global climate policy. Improving forestry land use is a strategically important task for Ukraine as a whole and Ternopil region in particular. Implementation of modern approaches to management, integration of digital solutions, increasing the role of communities, and effective implementation of legal norms will allow preserving and rationally using forest resources. A comprehensive solution to these tasks will contribute to ensuring the ecological security of the state and its sustainable development.
