Synopsis (short abstract) The Forest Resources Assessment (FRA) Project in the Philippines was initiated in August 2002 for the assessment of Philippine forest and tree resources as part of the framework of the Forest Resources Assessment Programme of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) to support national forest assessments (NFA). The project aims to provide, among others, information on the distribution of forest and other wooded lands according to tree species composition, ownership and m anagement status, size of holdings, designation/protection status, commercial volume and growing stock, and felling and/or removals. The project was spearheaded by the Forest Management Bureau (FMB) and implemented in the field by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) operating units (DENR regional offices), in collaboration with the Forestry Department of FAO. The major emphasis of this report is to provide comprehensive information on the status of forest and trees outside forest in the country and analysis of the level of precision and reliability of generated data/information from forest inventory that is based on relatively low-intensity and systematic multi-stage sampling design.
