About LIFE Wood for Future
The LIFE Wood for Future project aims to help recover poplar plantations by halting their replacement with intensively grown herbaceous crops. The team wants to provide the forestry sector with tools that guarantee a sustainable supply of local wood to industry, leading to the generation of certified high-quality wood.
