Summary:

In 2007–13, EU budget (measure 122 of the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development) supported investments aimed to improve the economic value of forests owned by private persons or municipalities. The Court’s audit revealed that only a few of the audited projects significantly improved the economic value of forests, either by improving the value of the land or the value of the stands. Weaknesses in the design of the measure and its monitoring mechanisms affect its success full implementation. Many of the audited projects concerned activities which would have been more appropriately financed using other specific EAFRD measures.
