346272960Ucayali8. ForestForest risks, impacts and opportunities8.15aPlease provide details of the deforestation and/or forest degradation impacts as well as the primary action taken by your region.9Action description2Reforestadora Inca –Refinca– is a private company of the Dyer & Coriat Group, one of Peru's main economic groups in the agribusiness sector, which is installing 20,000 hectares of its own plantations and hopes to partner with local producers for a similar area, and is planned to build a wood processing plant in Pucallpa. The processing capacity installed in the city of Pucallpa will require in the medium term to increase wood production where smallholders are key actors. Currently, Refinca is interested in providing technical assistance and transfer of the technological package to ensure synergy with its supply chain, but the economic group does not have the capacity to invest in the installation with small producers with their own resources. A sustainability strategy that includes environmental and social safeguards is necessary.

ForestCurrent state8.1Please provide the details of your region’s current natural forest area.3Comments on the methodology used to collect data and quantify natural forest area1Details of region's natural forest areaThe year used was the most recent published data available. Owing to resource issues, we are only reporting on Ancient Woodland in Wales excluding Plantations on Ancient Woodland Sites (PAWS), taken from the Ancient Woodland Inventory (AWI) which was revised in 2011 to improve its accuracy. The AWI is made up of Ancient Semi Natural Woodland (ASNW), Restored Ancient Woodland Sites (RAWS), Plantation on Ancient Woodland Sites (PAWS) and Ancient Woodland Site Unknown (AWSU) – areas in transition. We have excluded PAWS from the figures used in this module as these are under plantation, although it is recognised that some are under management to gradually restore them to a more natural state. These woodlands best meet the criteria of “natural forest”. While we recognise that other woodland such as native broadleaved woodland, existing and newly planted would also meet this criteria, we have focused on the Ancient Woodland data owing to restricted resources and timescales. We hope to address this in future years. This definition of natural forest has been examined against statistics for woodland loss collected as part of the National Forest Inventory for Great Britain.

349672895Wales8. ForestForest policy and implementation8.10aPlease provide the details of your region’s target(s) on deforestation and/or forest degradation.9Please describe the target1Actuals planted are more accurate as our monitoring system has increased in accuracy since the base year indicated above. Hence increases between 2015 and 2017 are likely to be influenced by better recording accuracy rather than actual new planting. Actual new planting from 2016/17 to 2018/19 is 1,479 ha,,which we recognise is well below the target.Aim is to gradually restore all PAWS on the Welsh Government Woodland Estate to a more natural state through on-going management to improve their ecological condition. Sites are assessed based on their ecological potential to be successfully restored, and those with a high restoration potential are prioritised and restored subject to resources. Lower ecological potential sites are restored on a more gradual basis. This enables available resources to be targeted at those with a higher potential of success. Private owners are encouraged to do the same. Support for the private sector through Glastir Restoration Scheme on larch dominated sites felled due to P.ramorum disease. The UK Forest Standard encourages the protection and maintenance of natural forest remnants on these sites. Difficult to monitor progress as many PAWS are under gradual restoration management which takes place over a long term.
