Synopsis (short abstract) In his opening remarks to the Eighth Session of the FAO Committee on Forest Development in the Tropics, held in Rome in mid-September 1987 (reported in "The World of Forestry"), FAO Deputy Director-General D.J. Walton drew a parallel between the situation in forestry today and that of agriculture in the 1970s, pointing out that only when policy-makers outside agriculture began to understand the social and economic costs of neglecting the sector did things begin to change for the better.
