The Romanian state has acquired more than 4,000 hectares of forest in Neam\u021b county, marking the largest such purchase made on behalf of the state to date. The transaction, worth RON 111.83 million, was finalized by Romsilva (the National Forest Administration) and approved by the government through an emergency ordinance proposed by the Ministry of Environment.<\/p>\n
The forested area, totaling 4,063.25 hectares, is located in the administrative territories of the Grin\u021be\u0219 and Ceahl\u0103u communes and is now managed by the Poiana Teiului Forest District under the Neam\u021b Forest Directorate, the ministry announced.<\/p>\n
The newly acquired forestland has been added to the state\u2019s public domain and will contribute to the national forest fund.<\/p>\n
Since 1991, Romsilva has purchased more than 10,000 hectares of forestland and nearly 2,000 hectares of degraded agricultural land, which were later reforested. In total, over 12,000 hectares have been added to the state\u2019s forest assets through these efforts.<\/p>\n
Romsilva currently manages approximately 4.2 million hectares of forests across Romania.<\/p>\n\n
