Résumé

This Regulation of the Forestry Development Authority (FDA) implements provisions of the National Forestry Reform Law of 2006 on the extraction of non-timber products such as goods of biological origin other than wood that are derived from the forest (NTFPs) and small objects made of wood, which are not considered timber products. Traditional NTFPs shall include also small arborous and fibrous plants and animals. Specific rules shall apply to the production/exploitation and utilization of Traditional NTFPs. The Regulation also provides for a categorisation and quantative assessment system for NTFPs and imposes certain requirements on the exportation of non-timber products. Forest use permit holders must provide compensation or return to local communities and resident communities may sustainably harvest NTFPs from their land in accordance with this Regulation. Special emphasis is made in this Regulation on sustainable and equitable exploitation of NTFPs.
