Planning of Allowable Cut in Working Forest Groups of Calabrian Pine for Timber Production

Linear programming models were developed and solved according to different interest rates and rotation periods for the planning of allowable cut using data obtained from working forest groups of calabrian pine in the Gazipaşa Forest Enterprise in Antalya. Then, the most suitable rotation period; regeneration and afforestation area; total and annual allowable cut; and present net value were determined.
