{"product_id":"forest-certification-von-abraham-baffoe-und-richard-vlosky","title":"FOREST CERTIFICATION","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe growing concerns over the last two decades about  the environmental and socio-economic impacts of  illegal logging and associated trade has led to the  development of tools  and measures aimed at tackling  the problem. One of such global measures is the  certification of forest products the requirements of  which major importers of tropical timber products  mainly from the EU request their suppliers to  achieve. With the EU as a major market destination  for Ghanaian timber products, most companies in  Ghana began implementing certification requirements  during the early 2000. However, efforts by these  companies have not been successful. In spite of  this, very little academic literature exists on why  companies'' are unable to achieve certification and  how this affect forest management and timber export  trade in Ghana. This book details current forest  management practices, certification implementation  and its challenges in Ghana and their implications  for forest management and timber export trade. The  analysis and recommendations provided should be  useful for forest managers, administrators,  exporters and importers of Ghanaian timber products.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783843393065\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIMPLICATIONS FOR SUSTAINABLE FOREST MANAGEMENT AND TIMBER EXPORT TRADE IN GHANA\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Autorenwelt Shop","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783843393065","offer_id":39497051504733,"sku":"9783843393065","price":59.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/e64a9337-9ccd-4c02-8e4d-011156023cb7.jpg?v=1773123700","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/en\/products\/forest-certification-von-abraham-baffoe-und-richard-vlosky","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
