Dynamic treatment units in forest planning improves economic performance over stand-based planning

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: In a case study the authors compare planning approaches using such information for solving long-term forest planning problems. The authors reason that a combination of modelling of direct costs and use of spatial proxy variables such as common border length may be advisable in DTU planning to achieve compact and realistic treatment units. The aim of this study is to evaluate whether DTU forest planning can achieve an economically more efficient use of the forest resource than stand-based forest planning. Over a predefined number of iterations within each phase, the model changes TPs for . . .
