3rd Expert Committee Meeting of the LIFE Haya Project in Ezcaray

On 25 June, the 3rd Expert Committee of the LIFE Haya project was held in Ezcaray, focused on discussing the forestry of demonstration stands in PEFC certified forests, such as Valgañón and Monte Hondo, located in La Rioja.

En los dos anteriores Comités de Expertos, el programa se centró en los aspectos selvícolas. En este 3er Comité el objetivo fue contemplar preferentemente los aspectos ligados a la ejecución de los aprovechamientos y el destino de la madera procedente de los mismos, factores que actualmente condicionan las extracciones en La Rioja. Estos factores incluyen principalmente la fuerte pendiente del terreno y la valorización energética de la madera, incluyendo el uso en centrales de biomasa.

The two scheduled visits were carried out on actual files offered for sale. Both forests are certified by PEFC under the regional PEFC 14-23-00012 certificate. In the Valgañón forest, the marking carried out was discussed, as well as the aspects related to the execution of the harvesting and the destination of the large timber to be extracted. In the Monte Hondo stand in Ezcaray, a different conformation of the beech forest was observed, which, due to the circumstances of the terrain, will have to be harvested by wiring.

El proyecto LIFE Haya promociona un modelo selvícola de cubierta continua “Close to Nature“, que busca no solo adaptar los ecosistemas forestales al cambio climático, sino también mejorar su biodiversidad y promover prácticas sostenibles en la gestión forestal. Este modelo se está implementando en un conjunto de diez rodales demostrativos distribuidos en diez montes de utilidadpública en cuatro regiones de España: La Rioja, Navarra, Castilla y León y el País Vasco.

Finally, innovative products made from this wood were shown, highlighting its role in new construction trends aimed at mitigating climate change and improving energy efficiency.
