| forest exploitation | Forstnutzung | |
| forest exploitation (Forests have been exploited over the centuries as a source of wood and for obtaining land for agricultural use. The mismanagement of forest lands and forest resources has led to a situation where the forest is now in rapid retreat. The main aspects of the situation are: serious shortages in the supply of industrial wood; the catastrophic erosion and floods accompanying the stripping of forests from mountainous land; the acute shortages of fuel wood in much of the developing world; the spread of desert conditions at an alarming rate in the arid and semi-arid regions of the world; and the many environmental effects of the destruction of tropical rainforests) | Forstnutzung | |
| forest fire (A conflagration in or destroying large wooded areas having a thick growth of trees and plants) | Waldbrand | |

| forest product (Any material afforded by a forest for commercial use, such as tree products and forage) | Forstwirtschaftliches Erzeugnis | |
| forest product | Forstwirtschaftliches Erzeugnis | |
| forest production | Forstwirtschaftliche Produktion | |
| forest production (Forests produce a range of products including firewood and charcoal, lumber, paper, and crops such as coffee, oil palm, and rubber. With careful planning of growth and harvesting, wood and other forest products are, in principle, renewable resources. But achieving renewability takes time - often decades, sometimes centuries. Without careful management, pressure for short-term exploitation can lead to tree removal, soil degradation, and conversion of woodland to other uses. Consumption of forest resources can lead to environmental problems as well as loss of critical habitat and species) | Forstwirtschaftliche Produktion | |
| forest protection | Waldschutz |
