In 1994 the Patriziato established its own forestry team. The team was formed especially to carry out the work of the silvicultural project that concerned the management of the forests located on the right slope, lasting 10 years, approved by the competent authorities; but in general to manage the immense territory of the Patriziato. The investment required for the creation of the team was about 300,000 thousand francs and allowed the construction of a new warehouse and the purchase of the vehicles and machinery needed to carry out the work. In the following years the fleet was enriched with additional vehicles including a splitter, trailer, etc.... A further achievement in these 18 years of operation is to have been able to increase jobs and hire an apprentice silviculturist each year. • logging • forest engineering (caissons, grates, avalanche shelters) • silviculture • road maintenance • trail maintenance • firewood • chestnut poles
