Description

This paper discusses some measures for assisting forest owners, forest workers and forestry enterpises with the maintenance of manmade forests, and aims to clarify the results of and issues with measures that have been taken since the 1990s. The circumstances of the forestry changed remarkably in the 1990s. In response, the government developed measures to deal with the changing situation, especially regarding the following two points: 1) makeing it easier for forest owners to commission work to forestry enterprises, and 2) improving the working and hiring conditions of forest workers. These measures are significant in that they have provided job security in some rural areas. However, the problems that the forestry and rural areas face are structural and thus are difficult to solve merely by implementing measures in the forestry sector. The Forest Economy Socjety will have to provide descriptions and explanations about the conditions of forestry and rural communities, in order to help the general public to become aware of these problems.
