Overregulation of the

legal actors vs. little

oversight of illegal actors,

enabling corruption.

Lack of participation and

isolation of the private

sector on decision-

making, regulation and

legislation.

Negative image of the

forest sector on the

media and with society.

Lack of technology and

research on forest

management and genetic

engineering.

Judicial uncertainty of long-term forestinvestments that gobeyond government and administrative/legislativecycles because they are +20 and 30 years.

Land incentives for long-term projects.

Erratic governmentreforestation projects, which are linked to political agendas and do not respond to real world-needs.

Lack of unity/interestbetween forest-sector actors along the supply-chain to organizethemselves as a forest-sector cluster.

Thank you very

much
