The forest Landes of Gascogne is cultivated and preserved for its wood by a diverse and dynamic channel which totalize almost 30,000 places of employment in the Aquitaine region, forestry machining processes and transformation. Regarding this matter of things, it must be pointed out that the presence of a dynamic channel of machining, cultivation and preservation is a vital condition for the development of the forest.
