当前林业正处在一个历史性的转折时期,如何正确认识并科学界定有关基本概念成为必须解决的问题。从概念认识出发,讨论了林业发展的阶段问题和如何看待林业发展变化的问题,认为我国林业目前仍处于传统阶段,有很多要补课的任务,特别是森林的科学经营方面。提出了创新改革的若干思路,认为大面积国有林应该放到省一级管理,集体林更应归省管理。 At present, forestry is at a historic turning point. How to correctly understand and scientifically define the basic concepts has become a problem that must be solved. Starting from the concept understanding, this paper discussed the stage of forestry development and how to treat the change of forestry development. We think that our country’s forestry is still in the traditional stage and there are many tasks to make up the lesson, especially the scientific management of the forest. Proposed a number of ideas for innovation and reform, that a large area of ​​state-owned forest should be placed at the provincial level management, collective forest should go to the provincial management.
