26. Calls for the inclusion in the future action plan for sustainable forest management of specific risk-prevention measures targeted at monitoring and managing combustible forest material as well as managing woodland; also calls for this plan to further the evaluation of the effect of external factors on woodland, the consideration of their social and economic value, and the search for new support instruments applicable to the sector;

8. Believes that rural development policy could play a useful role in the prevention of natural disasters; underlines that the drastic reduction in resources for rural development hinders the drafting of action plans to prevent and repair damage caused by natural disasters; recommends, however, that national and regional rural development plans give priority to measures aimed at the causes of the disasters (inter alia, the fight against erosion, the repopulation of woodland with appropriate species, the preservation of firebreaks, hydraulic projects, the maintenance of woodland, and water-saving agro-environmental action);

Key actions include: optimising the use of available measures under the reformed CAP, notably to prevent intensification or abandonment of high–nature–value farmland, woodland and forest and supporting their restoration; implementing the forthcoming Forest Action Plan including measures to prevent and combat forest fires; optimising the use of available measures under the reformed CFP, notably to restore fish stocks, reduce impacts on non–target species and reduce damages to marine habitats; and advancing implementation of key environmental framework directives and thematic strategies which reduce pressures on biodiversity, notably by ...[+++] improving the quality of freshwater, of the marine environment and of soils, and by reducing diffuse pollutant pressures (e.g. airborne acidifying and eutrophicating substances, nitrates from farm sources, pesticides).

Over the last few decades, Portuguese woodland has been chaotically managed, as the Commissioner has already said here. One third of Portugal’s land area of 90 000 square kilometres is given over to woodland.
