The core idea of this paper is to analyse the development levels of regulations, public policies and of application ́s authorities' suitability in connection with planted forests at the Centre and Pata- gonian regions in Argentina. This is an exploratory research, where legal hermeneutics and envi-ronmental PER indicators were applied. We can conclude that provincial regulations development levels are not even, and that the majority of regulations and of public policies are focused on fi xing economic incentives in order to take advantage of market ́s effect, without focusing on an overall forests ecosystem protection, and that application ́s authorities are not technically suitable for this.
