This study was conducted in the spring of 2005 through personal interviews to examine the opinions of forest products manufacturers and consumers about the perspective of forest certification in South Korea and to characterize those consumers who expect the activation of a forest certification system in South Korea. Study results indicated that consumers showed more positive aspect for the activation of forest certification than forest products manufacturers. Respondents who had a negative view for establishing a forest certification system in South Korea pointed out a lack of customers' demand for certified wood products as the most important reason. Results also showed that, even when a forest certification system would be introduced as a possible policy for helping to attain sustainable forest management, it would take at least 5 to 10 years to establish a forest certification system in South Korea. To facilitate the establishment of the system, many respondents suggested that an increased public awareness of forest certification systems was the most required precedent condition, and government for manufacturers and forest management association for consumers had to certify forest management practices as a competent organization. A profile of consumers who expected the activation of a forest certification system would describe in relative terms as the highly educated female who interviewed in the city of Seoul and of the 20 age bracket. Although there were an increased public awareness and positive prospective of forest certification by consumers and forest products manufacturers, it is required to arouse much more interest of consumers about the system.

This study was carried out to examine the perceptions of consumers and forest product manufacturers in South Korea about forest certification and to identify their willingness-to-pay for certified products by personal interviews. Sixteen percent of interviewees knew and heard about forest certification. However, fifty-six percent of interviewees had an intention to participate in forest certification system. The consumers' group can be described in relative terms as the male of 30 age bracket. The average price premium charged to consumers was higher than one paid to manufacturers, and thus manufacturers are willing to include the additional costs for certified products.

The study was conducted to examine consumers' awareness and perceptions on forest certification and their willingness to buy and pay price premium for certified wood products especially for selected four wood products. A total of 136 residents in Seoul and Gyeonggi Province were interviewed in the autumn of 2008. Although only 24.3 percent of the consumers are aware of forest certification, 82.4 percent of the respondents recognized the need and significance of forest certification. In general, 77.2 percent of the respondents were willing to buy certified wood products. Majority of the respondents, 84 out of 136 respondents (61.8%) expressed their willingness to pay (WTP) from more than 0 percent to less than 10 percent. Consumers' average WTP for certified wood products was estimated to be 5.6 percent. From the results of the study, lower priced wood products, such as copier paper (WTP=9.8%) and wood frame (WTP=11.6%), have higher price premiums than high priced products, such as wood table (WTP=6.8%) and wood flooring (WTP=7.6%). In conclusion, there could be feasible markets for certified wood products in South Korea as four out of five consumer are willing to pay more for such products. For the forest certification system to be adopted and widely accepted, the perceptions of forest stakeholders including consumers should be further increased.

본 연구는 지구차원의 목재인증제(木材認證制)인 FSC인증(認證)과 ISO 환경경영체제(環境經營體制) 인증(認證)의 최근 동향을 검토하고 인증제(認證制)가 우리 나라의 임산물무역에 미치는 잠재적 영향을 분석하였다. 목재인증표준(木材認證標準), 인증절차(認證節次) 및 인증(認證) 산림면적(山林面積) 등에 대한 자료 및 정보는 관련문헌과 지역 및 국제기구의 보고서 등으로부터 수집하였다. 목재인증제(木材認證制)가 우리 나라의 임산물무역에 미치는 영향은 환경(環境)과 임산물무역과 관련된 주요어에 대한 인지도(認知度)와 환경친화적이며 지속 가능하게 경영된 산림에서 생산되는 라벨부착목재에 대한 추가지불의사(追加支拂意思)를 설문 조사하여 분석하였다. 지구, 지역 및 개별국가차원에서 다양한 인증제(認證制)가 개발되고 있고 인증제(認證制)에 대한 관심도 증가되고 있기 때문에 인증목재(認證木材)의 시장공급량은 증가될 것으로 예측되나, 인증목재(認證木材)의 수요는 현 단계에서 불확실하며 소비자의 인증목재(認證木材)에 대한 반응이 주요 결정인자(決定因子)가 될 것이다. 단기적으로 목재인증제(木材認證制)가 우리 나라 수업에 미치는 영향이 크지 않을 것이다. 왜냐하면 국내 목재소비자들이 환경관련(環境關聯) 무역조치(貿易措置)에 대한 관심이 낮고, 인증목재(認證木材)에 대한 추가지불의사(追加支拂意思)가 적기 때문이다. 그러나 목재인증(木材認證)이 선진국 시장에서는 임산물수입장벽(林産物輸入障壁)으로 활용되고 있어 마루판이나 합판 등 유럽시장에 수출하는 임산물은 목재인증(木材認證)에 의해 부정적인 영향을 받을 것으로 예상된다.

This study carried out to develop barrier-free certification program in forest trail. It is done to provide the certification system presented about certification organized, certification standard and indexes, evaluation method and operation plan. In order to develop certification program in forest trail, detailed measurement index must be developed earlier based on an accessbility, a stability, a preservation and a walking continuity. The suitable forest trail for weak pedestrian was investigated that running slope should be 1/20(5%) maximum, cross slope cannot exceed 1/50(2%) maximum and clear tread width should be above of minimum 90cm. In addition, the trail type is designed as a mixed trail system which is a combination of the loop and the line form and its distance should be 225~675m. Finally, forest trail should be manage sustainably by having regular monitoring and evaluation.

이 연구의 목적은 우리나라의 특수한 임업현실을 반영하고 추후 민간차원의 시장도입을 고려하여 산림경영 단위에 실제적으로 적용할 수 있는 산림경영인증의 기준과 지표를 개발하는 데 있다. 이를 위해 산림경영단위의 C&I 특성을 적용하여 국제적으로 통용되고 있는 산림경영인증 기준과 지표 중 우리나라에 적용할 수 있는 기준과 지표의 도출을 위해 정책 생태 사회 경제분야의 전문가를 대상으로 AHP 설문조사를 실시하였다. AHP 분석결과를 바탕으로 FSC 산림경영인증 심사과정에 참여한 현장전문가와의 협의를 통해 기존의 FSC 인증심사 시 제기된 문제 점과 인증심사 과정을 심층 분석하여 실제 인증심사 시 고려해야 할 우리나라의 임업특수성을 재조명하였다. 그리하여 최종적으로 우리나라의 임업현실을 반영한 7개 기준 27개 지표를 한국형 산림경영인증 기준과 지표로 선정하여 92개 현장점검 항목을 제시하였다.

The purposes of the research in related to FSC in JuJe experimental forests (JJEFs) is to make pre and post socio-economic comparisons and play an important role of FSC, and recognition change to FSC timbers and to make an analysis to consumers' needs. As the results of onsite survey in 2005, respondents show a high awareness of SFM and FSC in comparisons of 2004, and the JJEFs play a critical role to make SFM and FSC advertisement worldwide, such as consumers' satisfaction to SFM and FSC is high. Hence provision of JJEF information such as job creation and socio-economic impacts to stockholders could make their satisfaction improving. Most of respondents to the FSC of JJEF represent a positive rate while low awareness to FSC timber is represented. Therefore, necessary information about JJEF FSC with forest management, process and consumption pattern of FSC is required into citizens. The final results prove that FSC effects such as 1.3 billion won direct additional benefits in terms of socio-economic aspects including environmental benefits and job creation and economic effects are enough to offset 1.3 billion won additional costs.

이 연구는 목재수납장의 잠재적 구매자를 대상으로 소비성향 및 사회 경제적 특성에 따른 산림인증의 인식정도를 파악하기 위해 수행하였다. 총 90부의 설문지 중 유효부수 88부를 분석한 결과, SFM과 FSC에 대한 전체 응답자의 인식도는 평균 2.25와 2.20(5점 리커트 기준)으로 비교적 낮게 나타났다. 친환경 그룹과 비친환경 그룹의 응답자는 80.7%와 18.2%의 비중을 차지하였으며, 모든 설문항목에 대해 그룹간 유의한 차이를 나타냈다. 각 그룹 내에서 SFM과 FSC를 인식하고 있는 응답자는 친환경 그룹이 약 31%, 비친환경 그룹이 5.6%(SFM)와 2.8%(FSC)를 차지하였다. 소비자 유형별 응답자의 사회 경제적 특성은 친환경 그룹의 기혼율과 평균연령 및 월평균 가계소득이 비친환경 그룹에 비해 약 1.3배 이상 높은 것으로 나타났다.

To respond to global warming, there is an increasing interest in eco-friendly alternative energy sources. Therefore, unused forest biomass that has been neglected due to a lack of marketability is attracting attention. With the introduction of the "unused forest biomass certification system" in 2019, ways of determining quantity of unused forest biomass have steadily increased. However, there have been reported cases whereby unused forest biomass weighed more than the amount of harvested trees. It was found that it was possible that forest resources that can be used as round wood were mixed with unused forest biomass. In this context, this study aimed to estimate the amount of mixed round wood in the unused forest biomass supply. The relative expression of growing stock/ha versus the amount of final clearing/ha collected was modeled (y=1.490x-94.341, R²=0.861). As a result, it was found that round wood was mixed into the unused forest biomass, contributing to the disparity observed between the weighted forest biomass and the amount of trees harvested. In conclusion, proper declaration and certification procedures should be carried out for the use of forest resources and promoting unused forest biomass usage.
