私有林在美国处于重要地位。全国私有林面积占全国森林面积的60%,私有林年木材产量达到全国木材产量的90%。通过立法来规范私有林主的行为是美国实施行政管理的主要手段。借鉴美国私有林发展的经验,将有助于我国非公有制林业的发展。 Private forests are important in the United States. The private forest area in the country accounts for 60% of the total forest area in the country and the private wood production in the year reaches 90% of the national output. Regulating the behavior of private owners through legislation is the main means by which the United States implements its administration. Learning from the experience of the development of private forests in the United States will contribute to the development of non-public ownership forestry in China.
