In the face of climate change, fast-growing forest plantations encouraged because of their ecosystem services
Résumé
In the face of climate change, forest plantations are encouraged by different stakeholders, at different scales. In this presentation, we discussed the ecosystem services associated with fast-growing plantations, now and in the future, by various stakeholders. We based our discussion on semi-structured interviews focusing on poplar and maritime pine plantations in the Centre Val de Loire region of France. We then looked at the example of acacia plantations in Vietnam (Thua Thiên Huê province). Forest plantations are also sources of disservices, which must be taken into account in order to reduce them and maximize the services rendered.
