  • SYNDICAT DES SYLVICULTEURS DU SUD-OUEST

    Founded in 1945, it brings together more than one million hectares of family-owned forest in South-West France. It safeguards the interests of forest owners against any abusive or discriminatory application of the law and economic, tax and environmental regulations, particularly the latter. It proposes guidance and reforms to encourage the independent management and galvanising of the forest economy at local level (regional government), national level (Parliament) and European level (via the USSE).
