Uthålligt skogsbruk i södra Sverige

Focus is on forest management and forest ecology in managed stands. We investigate how sustainable development is, or can be, implemented in today’s forestry practice. The course gives you the tools to switch from traditional instrumental-guideline approaches to more flexible objective-driven management to respond to emerging needs and challenges in forestry. We cover plantation forestry as it is widely practiced today, and emerging forest management approaches like continuous cover, mixed-species stands and retention tree practices. Two weeks are spent outdoors, visiting forests and experimental stands in Halland and Småland.
