Its main goal is to ensure the balance of forest retirement and reproduction in the ratio of 100% by 2024. To achieve this goal, 2 target indicators were established: “the ratio of reforestation and afforestation area to the area of ​​felled and damaged forest stands, %” and “damage from forest fires, million rubles”.
