 In Italy, general features required in order to identify an "Albero Monumentale" (literally "monumental tree") are defined by national law number 10 of 14 January 2013 "Norme per lo sviluppo degli spazi verdi urbani", which also requires Italian municipalities ("comuni") to take a census of their veteran trees.Defining local standards, census details, and law enforcement aspects such as fines or subsidies related to veteran trees is a matter transferred to the regions, which usually implement specific "leggi regionali" ('regional laws').Silviculture originally was developed to provide timber from forests run as plantations.
