German term

Nutzungen

German to English Tech/Engineering Materials (Plastics, Ceramics, etc.)
Das Holz stammt aus Nutzungen, welche den jeweis gültigen gesetztlichen Bestimmungen entsprechen.

The only thing I can think of is: The wood originates from forests, cops etc.

Timber plantations would probably apply to other parts of the world, but we are talking about Austria, Europe, hence we are not talking about high-grade timber...

Jochen König Feb 18, 2009:
Could this be some sort of recycled wood, e.g. for chipboard production?
Michael Harris Feb 18, 2009:
yes Would also say, especially forests that are controlled

Proposed translations

{forest or wood} production sites

Since it would be clear what sort of production is going on, you might leave off the 'forest' or wood.

limber plantations (AE); limber plantations

"medium" confidence only, bacause I only suppose that for the source "Nutzungen" = "Nutzholzplantagen"
Peer comment(s):

neutral jccantrell : Would that be 'lumber?' -- I meant lumber as opposed to limber.

you can produce "lumber" from any sort of wood; "lumber plantations" are specifically for lumber
