Dr. Ferim Gashi, Prof. Dr. Agron Bajraktari

Abstract :

The new economic environment and the situation in the forestry sector emphasize the urgent need for the establishment of efficient systems for a multi-purpose management of forest resources. The rules for use of remains and waste of a plant origin from forestry and processing industry related to the finalization of wood assortments are determined in the New Law on forestry and in the Administrative instructions. The Government of Kosovo will support the development of competitive wood industry, which is capable to benefit from the primary processing (sawmills) and the production of the bio-energy, in creation of a stable market for the wood and creation of financial facilitations for those individuals, private subjects, associations etc, that have capacities to invest in the forestry industry with a special emphasize to the Renewable Energy Sources (RES) in Kosovo. In rural zones, the wood remains an important resource of energy for heating. Due to this reason, the Government is to support the systems and methods that guide the improvement of production and use of forest resources, wood remains etc, those are optimal for energy production. The main activity relating to the forestry development strategy until 2022 is the production of bio-energy and the expected results are that the wood biomass is used in an efficient manner.
