Abstract

Modern silvicultural treatments are based on single trees whereas classic forest economics look at the stand level. To accompany each other it is necessary to transfer the established economic models to the single tree level. This paper is an approach to use the Faustmann model and the corresponding marginal rate of return (Pressler percent) to derive value increment rates of single trees taking into account neighbourhood effects due to competition between individual trees. Furthermore, optimal rotation periods and optimal final diameters for future trees will be calculated.
