Journal Title: INTERCATHEDRA - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 36
Abstract
This paper presents the extent of changes in the allocation of forest land for non-forest uses in local land use plans, and the extent, differences exclusions of forest land for non-forest purposes in Mazowieckie voivodeship. Unpublished materials from Regional Directorates of State Forests in Warsaw, Olsztyn, Łódź, Lublin and Radom, data collected by the Local Data Bank of the Polish Central Statistical Office and 2003–2017 Leśnictwo yearbooks are the basis for this study. The study period is 2002–2016. The analysis was conducted at district level. A comparative and descriptive method was used and a time series analysis was carried out. The results were presented in graphic form. The research revealed a dynamic increase in woodland area reallocated for non-forest uses in local land use plans. However, only a small proportion of this land is subsequently excluded from production. The Mazowieckie voivodeship ranks third in the country in the area of forest land excluded from production. In most cases, land excluded from production was allocated for mining, whereas the construction of water reservoirs was the least frequent purpose of reallocation.
