Abstract

An individual tree based stand growth model was analyzed, via dynamic programming, for thinning and final harvest strategies leading to maximum physical yields. Optimal density yield tables, indicating maximum yields and corresponding strategies, were constructed from the solution of the dynamic programming networks. Maximum yields averaged 25 – 30% higher than comparable yields reported previously for periodically thinned red pine plantations.
