Stone pine sector overview
¨ Portugal has 130.386 hectares of stone pine (AFN, 2010);
¨ The stone pine was the forest specie that in the period between the last two National Forest Inventory - a period of approximately 10 years (1995-2006), had the highest area increase in absolute and relative value (+68 %, about 52.000 ha).

Stone pine sector overview
¨ Dissemination of the grafting techniques¨ Increase of the mechanical harvesting¨ High investments by forest producers in afforestation and
forest management with stone pine¨ Main export is the cone pine (and not the pine nut)

Stone pine sector overview
¨ Average global pine cone production of around 84.000 ton/year (but last year was much higher)
¨ Profit rate results from Cone and Pine nut sampling:¤ Average pine cone profit rate (pine cone – pine nut shell) =
20,5%¤ Average pine nut profit rate (pine cone – pine nut) = 4%¤ Average pine nut productivity:n Viable – 89,4%n Dry – 8,9%n Unviable – 3,2%

Stone pine sector overview
¨ 1st Detection of Leptoglossus occidentalis by INRB (October 2010) – reported in several places in Portugal
¨ Establishment of a national survey program (AFN-INRB-UNAC)
¨ Research on the life cycle biology¨ No signs of any evidence of loss production
