Footballer by passion, forest analyst by the rest of the time. The idea of this blog idea was born in my head a long time ago but never had time for its realization. As my theoretical and practical knowledge in forestry and forest analytics has been significantly growing since I emigrated from Poland, I have decided to share it with people who are interested in efficient management of all kind of resources related to forestry. I would like to discuss here different tools, solutions and managerial systems in different places around the world. Definitely, this blog is for people who are open-minded and not always politically correct. I will tell things as they are, but also how they should look like in my opinion. My personal intention is to keep texts short and focus more on the discussion. Therefore, prepare your valid and well-reasoned opinions (constructive criticism only) and enjoy being a part of forestry community!
