It is an honor and pleasure for me to write the foreword of this
book comprising the of Forest Resources for proceedings of the
Fourth Symposium on the Improvement Recyclable Forest Products. The
symposium was organized by Dr. Toshihiro Ona, Associate Professor
at the Graduate School of Bioresource and Bioenvironmental
Sciences, Kyushu University, Japan, as part of the "Development of
Forest Resources with High Performance for Paper Recycling"
research project. This was supported by the Core Research for
Evolutional Science and Technology (CREST) team at the Japan
Science and Technology Agency Foundation (lST) and by Kyushu
University. As a colleague of Dr. Ona, I commend his efforts in
organizing the symposium and editing this book. In the forest,
there is a multitude of resources, including trees, herbal plants,
fruits, fungi, mammals, birds, insects, fishes, reptiles, water,
landscapes, and tourist attractions. Nowadays, even the environment
is regarded as a kind of forest resource. These resources can
provide a diversity of forest products, such as timber for
buildings, pulp and paper, charcoal, herbal medicines, wild
vegetables, animal protein, edible mushrooms, and nonwoody fibers.
From these resources, major forest products are produced using
various species of trees. For example, softwood is suitable as
building material, while hardwood is suitable for furniture
production; pulp and paper are produced from both softwood and
hardwood. Therefore, forest locations and forest management methods
should vary according to the tree species used for production of
different forest products.
