The estimates included in the "Integrated Forest Account" supported by case studies undertaken in various of the country's municipalities, show that over 95% of operations involving forestry products in Guatemala take place outside the jurisdiction of the relevant national authorities. Public institutions concerned directly with the forestry sector include the National Forests Institute (INAB), the National Council for Protected Areas (CONAP) and the Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources, all of which collaborate with other ministries and both national and local institutions. Between 1998 and December 2009, incentives amounting to more than US$ 100 million were given, and a total of 88,503 ha of forestry plantation were established in the country (INAB, 2010). Thanks to the PINFOR programme, there are currently over 100,000 ha operating under these conditions.
