Silvicultura Intensiva: innovación forestal para un futuro sostenible Un grupo de investigación del TEC que impulsa la productividad forestal en Costa Rica

Abstract

Intensive forestry is seen as the country’s strategy to maximize the productivity of our forest plantations and consequently meet the demand for high-quality wood. With this vision in mind, the Intensive Forestry Research Group was created in 2020 at the TEC School of Forestry Engineering. Using a multidisciplinary approach, the group aims to provide tools that allow producers, technicians, and decision-makers in the forestry sector to increase the productivity of forest plantations and offer a quality product for the national and international markets. Below is a summary of the creation of the Intensive Forestry Research Group, its achievements, and future expectations.
