Coppice conversion, a difficult and long-lasting process in Europe
Coppice forests, dominated by broad-leaved tree species such as oaks (Quercus spp.) and beech (Fagus spp.), and producing especially small-sized timber for energetic uses, are an important component of European rural areas. Under the pressure to produce largediameter logs for industrial uses, the process of converting coppice forests to high forest has started in Europe in the first half of 19th century. Since then, different methods of coppice conversion (i.e. direct vs. indirect, by ageing, substitution, reconstruction, etc.) have been developed and used in similar ways Europe-wide in order to enhance the ecological, commercial and social values of coppice forests. Currently, the conversion of coppice forests comprises especially those coppices showing various degrees of degradation (e.g., with inappropriate species composition, under-stocked, low productive, with rotten stumps, etc.). In case of privately-owned coppices, this process is driven by either legal requirements (forest laws) or financial incentives such as the EU subsidies for rural development. In this context, taking into account the revival of coppice forests as the result of increasing use of renewable sources of energy in the rural areas, the paper presents some case-studies of coppice conversion in the south-east of Europe.
