The arrival of the forest carbon sector over a decade ago heralded a new era in forest conservation financing. In New Zealand, the restorative reforestation of erosionprone rural landscapes and native forest habitats would be limited only by the appetite for carbon credits among carbon buyers and a ...

The article is a continuation of research on the relationship between forest habitat type and economic aspects of forest management. It assesses the impact of forest habitat types on reforestation costs. As a part of the implementation of the assumed work objectives, economic activities related to...

Forest cover has decreased dramatically in Southeast Asia over the last decades. Understanding the drivers behind these changes is critical to predict changes and minimise their adverse effects. The objectives of the present study were to provide accurate estimates of forest gains and losses in...

Successive calamities, including bark beetle outbreaks and windthrow, have caused severe damages in German forests since 2018. The loss of forest stands as an important source of income makes it increasingly difficult for forest management to secure sustainable revenues, which in turn threatens the ...

China's state-owned forest farms are the basic sectors of forestry production, and their carbon cycle functions, such as timber processing and forest carbon sequestration, are of great significance to the national emission reduction strategy. By three-stage DEA and Tobit models, this paper measures ...

Afforesting unutilized or low-productivity agricultural land is important for achieving ambitious climate targets, and subsidy schemes may incentivize this land-use change. To determine how subsidies affect the relative performance of afforestation, we analyze both carbon-flux-based and lump sum...

We develop a model of optimal land allocation in a developing economy that features three possible land uses: agriculture, primary and secondary forests. The distinction between those forest types reflects their different contributions in terms of public goods. In our model, reforestation is costly ...

This article talks about why a forest on an agricultural land is good, especially in the case of Russia having tens of millions of hectares of agricultural land having been abandoned over the past decades. With this, at least three conditions were given to have the greatest efficiency of intensive...

Forest products have become scarce for local communities in the Philippines. After decades of severe deforestation, a net gain in forest area has only been observed in recent years for the first time. This paper seeks to broaden the understanding of forest livelihood relationships at the turning...

Forest transition theory proposes pathways that countries might follow to experience forest recovery, but countries currently undergoing forest transition do so in a global context fundamentally different from what it was just 50 years ago. Our study analyzes China's ongoing forest transition to...
