Discussion on the Application of Forestry Technology Extension in Ecological Forestry Construction

In recent years,the contradiction between social development and ecological environmental protection has increased sharply, especially as demands for ecological forestry construction have become ever greater. As one of the important ways to promote ecological environment construction, ecological forestry encourages soil and water conservation, biodiversity conservation and ecological environmental protection. Adequate funding in the construction of ecological forests and stable financing channels are the main factors that ensure the smooth development of ecological environmental construction. This paper describes the present situation for ecological environmental construction and ecological forestry. It analyzes the existing ecological forestry financing sources and channels and summarizes the successful experience of domestic and international lotteries. The ecological forestry financing channel is singular and inadequate funding is restricting the development of ecological environment construction. Active identification of new, stable financing channels is conducive to resolving the funding gap problem. An ecological lottery is suggested as a new type of ecological public welfare fund that has practical necessity and theoretical feasibility.

Forest Education

Forest plays an important role in humane life.Nowadays, a significant development of tourism and education can be observed in the forests. For many visitors forests are the destination of tourist trips. However, in order to develop tourism successfully there, the forest areas have to be properly developed. Recreation and relax in forest can become an additional source of income for forest districts and their administrative entities. This activity constitutes an important source of income for the local economy through the costs incurred by visitors for the journey to the forest for educational and recreational purposes. Within the framework of this institution there are. In Poland, in 2016, there were 25 Promotional Forest Complexes (PFCs), whose task is to realize the social functions of forests. FPCs are an original Polish idea for promoting ecological forestry. Foresters within PFCs conduct various activities, including promoting sustainable forest economy, supporting scientific research and providing forest education for general public. The educational activity of PFCs is financed by two sources of funding internal (own) financing and external financing (foreign). The main source of financing education in PFCs is the own resources of the forest districts. The aim of the article is to show the forms of forest education in Poland, as well as its economic aspects. It also presents the expenditures and benefits drawn from the development of the educational function of forests. The author attempts to evaluate the prospective cost of visitors’ attendance in these areas. In order to write the article, the authors used the following research methods: empirical analysis of secondary materials, literature analysis and statistical analysis.
