Which stand development scenario is more suitable for maritime pine stands management in centre inland of Portugal?
| Resumo: | Production efficiency is greatest at lowest stocking densities that achieves full use of the site potential for timber production. However, in practice, others factors such as, timber quality, price assumptions, harvesting costs, risk of wind throw and regeneration options, also need to be considered at the time during the rotation when determining desired stocking density (Skovsgaard and Vanclay, 2008). In this study, the working hypothesis was to test if stand management using prescriptions that led to an under stocked stand situation were the more suitable in terms of merchantable yield and economi |
