Firewood will cost between 370 and 1250 lei per meter ster this cold season, depending on the type of wood and the area of origin. Moldsilva agency director Victor Durbala gave assurances that there are stocks of wood for the whole heating season, IPN reports.

"Available stocks exceed 91 thousand square meters, and another 100 thousand square meters are expected by the end of the year. These quantities are sufficient to cover the heating needs of the population this winter", Victor Durbala said in an interview with Radio Chisinau.

The director of Moldsilva encouraged citizens to contact forestry companies to buy wood, not intermediaries, in order to avoid the purchase of illegally cut timber.

At the same time, Victor Durbala appealed to the population to get actively involved in the sapling planting campaign on saturday, november 16.
