Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive guide to using a multiple BAF inventory system, a data analysis method developed to support multiple use land management with sustained yield and multiple use principles. It is an effective tool for managing forested lands that provides managers with the data needed to understand and evaluate proposed land management practices in multiple use terms. This system has been adapted to describe a tract of land to meet the particular stocking conditions on Beaver Creek in Arizona, illustrating the analysis of research findings, inventory data, and their blending to form interpretations regarding product yields for different forest conditions and land productivity. The book describes the inventory method and how it is applied using an example of forest management methods for one of the Beaver Creek pilot watersheds, blending known relations of different products to forest conditions with inventory data. The author determines if it is feasible to manage the land as proposed, change in multiple use production that can be expected, and the immediate direct costs and returns associated with change in management. The book concludes by providing a multiple-use summary of the proposed management system, offering a quantitative basis for decision-makers to consider when evaluating whether to accept or reject a particular course of action on a specific tract of land.
