The article discusses practical aspects of forest use in the Russian Federation and identifies the most common forest uses. We propose to increase forest use by harvesting and collection of non-timber forest products, including resin, forest foods and medicinal plants. We also describe the main pathways of utilizing waste from logging and wood processing to obtain products that are in great demand in the market and have a high selling price. Finally, we present the results of the analysis of changes in forest productivity depending on the increase in the number of types of forest use.
