increased knowledge and awareness on the environmental factors controlling yields and health-promoting compounds of non-timber forest products during the life cycle of managed forests.
OutputsWe produce NONWOOD PACKAGE, an audiovisual information package summarizing current expertise knowledge and results of the project, including information on:
– the effect of environmental conditions and forest management regimes on forest berries and other selected forest plant species.
– potential hot spots for high yields of bilberry, lingonberry, and other selected plant species
– the variation of anthocyanin concentration in bilberry in relation to site characteristics
