ABSTRACT

This paper is a literature review of the silviculture of stone pine (Pinus pinea L.), combined with information available from North Africa in comparison with the northern Mediterranean zone. The objective is to use the available research results to provide guidance for stone pine stands for timber, cone, and pine nuts production management established in the Mediterranean zone. Pinus pinea L. is a Mediterranean species of economic importance due to its timber and pine nuts that have high market value, and its production can increase the economic value and development of degraded and marginalized areas. Special emphasis is given to the case study of Tunisia silvicultural system and other Mediterranean basin areas to characterize the production of stone pine stands. Among the objectives of this work is to give results on the methodology for producing grafted plant of stone pine on different regions and edaphic conditions and to evaluate the development of the plantations that generate both economic and ecological benefits (soil protection). In North Africa, we conclude that the area allocated to pine nuts should be notably greater. Our results provide useful information for the silviculture of Pinus pinea production of cones to be used in new program of forest management in North Africa.

摘要

本文是对石松（Pinus pinea L. ）造林的文献综述，结合北非与地中海北部地区的比较信息。目的是利用现有的研究成果为在地中海地区建立的用于木材、锥体和松子生产管理的石松林提供指导。松树L. 是一种具有重要经济意义的地中海物种，因为其木材和松子具有很高的市场价值，其生产可以增加退化和边缘化地区的经济价值和发展。特别强调突尼斯造林系统和其他地中海盆地地区的案例研究，以表征石松林的生产。这项工作的目标之一是给出在不同地区和土壤条件下生产石松嫁接植物的方法的结果，并评估可产生经济和生态效益（土壤保护）的人工林的发展。在北非，我们得出结论，分配给松子的面积应该明显更大。我们的研究结果为松树的造林提供了有用的信息 生产用于北非森林管理新计划的锥体。
