Abstract: This article is based on contributions to the forestry and communities workshops held at the 1981 Institute of Foresters Conference. The participants included N.Z. Forest Service staff, members of private forestry companies, forestry consultants, and others whose experience of forestry developments extended over some forty years in a wide variety of regions and diversity of operations. There was agreement about problems that face future development in rural regions. In particular, participants emphasised the need for better information transfer and fuller involvement of rural society in resource management decision-making.
