| description | The pine forests of the state of Chihuahua have been submitted to intensive harvesting for a number of years, without the benefit of a good management program. In the process, only the lumber has been considered important and no attention has been paid to the other services that the forest can provide. There has also been a separation between the interests of the forest owners and those of the forest products manufacturers, and no real attempts have been made to implement strategies that while permitting an increase in the forest productivity, can guarantee that the industry obtains constant supplies of quality raw materials without unduly degrading the forest resources. The forest inventories generated in the past 40 years do not reflect the exact situation of the forests neither the volumes that can be adequately extracted. The data published do not coincide with the real conditions of the forest and therefore, can not be trusted as reliable indicators to develop management programs. It is also necessary to design strategies to recover the deforested areas through the plantation of individual trees, starting from the collection and germination of seeds, while restricting the conversion of forest areas into agricultural land. Finally, it is highly desirable that programs of multiple-use of the forests be put into practice, so these can be seen not only as lumber producers with a short-time usefulness, but as providers of multiple environmental services not just for Chihuahua but for the neighboring states. |

Los bosques de pino del estado de Chihuahua han sido sometidos a la explotación de madera desde hace un buen número de años, sin que se haya utilizado un buen programa de aprovechamiento. La extracción ha sido intensiva dando importancia únicamente a la madera y dejando de lado los demás servicios que pueden ser aprovechados. Ha existido también una separación entre los objetivos de los poseedores del bosque y los dueños de las industrias, sin que se hayan hecho intentos por plantear estrategias que les permitan a los productores lograr mayores beneficios y a la industria lograr un abastecimiento constante de material de buena calidad sin degradar el capital de los bosques. La realización de los inventarios en los últimos 40 años no refleja exactamente la situación de los bosques ni los volúmenes de madera que pueden ser aprovechados. Los datos publicados no coinciden con la realidad, por lo que no se pueden considerar muy confiables cuando se diseñan los programas de aprovechamiento. Es necesario también diseñar estrategias para la recuperación de los bosques deforestados, mediante la siembra de individuos, partiendo desde la colecta y germinación de semillas y restringiendo por parte las autoridades la apertura de más terrenos forestales para ser convertidos en campos de cultivo agrícola. Por último, es altamente recomendable que se instauren programas de uso múltiple en los bosques para que estos no sean vistos únicamente como proveedores de madera con un lapso de productividad corto, sino que se conserven y manejen de forma integral para abastecer de servicios ambientales no sólo al estado de Chihuahua sino a las entidades vecinas.
