description | Sustainable management of teak plantations in Java requires an improvement of the existing yield regulation method
to optimize multiple benefits of the plantations at risk of stand destruction. This study was therefore aimed to
formulate an alternative harvest scheduling model that integrates risk of stand destruction for supporting
multipurpose management of teak plantations. The proposed model used a state-space planning model to simulate
the dynamic of plantations due to timber harvesting and stand destruction, and then sought optimal solutions for 2
management scenarios, i.e. timber management that optimized total harvest volume and multipurpose management
that optimized net present value (NPV) while increasing carbon stocks. Using a case study on a typical teak
plantation, this study confirmed that increasing destruction rates reduced harvest volumes, NPV, carbon stocks, and
resulted in imbalanced ending age-class structures. Reducing cutting-age limit increased harvest volumes and NPV,
but it also reduced carbon stocks of the plantations. Although the multipurpose management generated lower
financial benefit, it maintained carbon stocks and produced better ending age-class structures compared to timber
management. The proposed harvest scheduling model provides a useful planning tool for managing teak plantations. |
