The broad-leaved trees of Limousin

The imprint of the Sweet chestnut tree

The asset of the leafy massif for Limousin.


Broad-leaved trees cover two thirds of the total surface of the forest limousine.

The surfaces of various essences vary strongly: Oaks dominate and represent approximately two thirds of the surfaces of leafy populatings, followed by the Sweet chestnut tree and by the Beech.


In a context of durable management, taking into account the economic, environmental and social stakes, the leafy massif of Limousin represents a considerable asset.


Its development passes by the development and the popularization of silvicultural routes and ways of exploitation suited.
