The invaluable memo

Available only on the Web, la Forêt et le Bois en France en 100 questions* tackles the sector’s big issues precisely and instructively. A publication for you to discover straight away.

Up-to-date scientific and technical information

Conceived and put together by the French Agricultural Academy, Forestry and Timber in France in 100 questions  (link www.academie-foret-bois.fr) offers up-to-date scientific and technical information covering all aspects of a multi-faceted sector. Everyone will have the reading keys to understanding, debating, and acting in a context whereby social, political and economic concerns about the forest and its timber channel are running high on a European, national, and worldwide scale. By adopting a standpoint at the interface between science, technology and society, the French Agricultural Academy contributes to the sharing of knowledge; it helps take a fresh look at popular conceptions, fills in knowledge gaps, and lets citizens participate in collective exchanges where a voice in matters is often the preserve of technicians and specialists.
