Utilization, sustainable Goods, services Sustainability: harvest = growth, no more no less Silviculture to manage biological components According to main function of forest stand What is silviculture? Silv technique? Silv system/regime?

Task of silviculture
Forest owner Public
Management plan
Silvicultural goals
Woods: construction, pulp, energy Hunting: proportion trees >< grass Agroforestry: proportion combination of plantsanimals Recreation: areas combination woody, open, pathways, infrastructures, water, beauty Water regime protection: non wood products Conservation forests: unique plants, animal species/habitat

To allocate forest area (mapping), activity plan (what, where, when, how, who), financial plan Inventory -> activity/silviculture Area organisation >< functional organisation One Forest Management Unit (4000050000 ha)

Compartment (80-120 ha): smallest administrative unit, not homogenous habitat Sub-compartment: homogenous site -> homogenous forest stand, minimum area 5 ha Not administration unit but silvicultural unit Homogenous species, age, composition Work map scale 1:5000, all detail

Inventory: tree number-dimensionvolume, infrastructures, social aspects, composition, threats against forest, non woody areas Data processing, text planning -> mapping of activities (what, where, when, who, how) Expertise needed: species growth habit, pest & disease, market

Firebelt: physical, social, regulation Rehabilitation ex forest fire: line planting? Tree species choice: ecological, financial, marketing THPB, TPTI, TPTJ, TR -> multi system Binapilih, Agroforestri, Silv intensif

Silvicultural factors

3. 4.
Physical: topography, distance from market, accessibility, vegetation, soil -> main function of forest Management goals: water, veneer, pulp, conservation -> silv regime Threats: fire, stealing, land conflict -> silv regime Management capability: capital, skill, marketing, labour supply

Intensive silviculture practices for farmer and community managed forests: an indonesias iniciative
Custom forests: natural forest Community managed forests: natural forest Farmer/private land forests: agroforestry practices

Do not plant dipterocarp tree species immediately after forest fire, initialized by pioneer tree species. Use of heister (big planting material), organic media Clean site preparation prior to planting, very scarce retained trees
