Question

What do you mean by planned harvesting of forests how does it help in conservation

Answer 1

Forest-use decisions should be documented in the logging contract and in the forest harvesting plan.

Forest planners should determine the availability of both cadastral and physical land classification information, which could include:

Physical land classification
- Contours/Slope

- Soil classes

- Drainage patterns

- Forest type and distribution etc.


Cadastral land classification
- Cadastral boundaries (landuse/ownership)

- Conservation areas

- Ownership boundaries etc.

Most of this information can be adequately displayed as maps, which should be accurate, “corrected” and at a scale that provides sufficient detail for the purposes required. Individual countries have country-specific map scales for this purpose.

This planning information, combined with consultation with stakeholders, should be used to identify suitable areas for production and conservation. Where this is unavailable, a combination of field checking, aerial photo interpretation/satellite imagery and data interpretation will refine details for the planning process.
