Abstract
Harvesting costs and annual equivalent worths of stumpage were simulated for several product/harvesting combinations for short rotation trees grown in agroforestry plantations. Optimal rotation ages were near the point of maximum mean annual volume increment of 10 years for the example situation. Production of firewood for local consumption had higher worth than production of firewood for urban markets, fuel chips, or pulp chips. Methods using whole tree transport were not competitive with systems that produced firewood or chips on-site.
