Book Economics of Forest Resources

Download or read book Economics of Forest Resources written by Gregory S. Amacher and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive and technical survey of forest resource economics, concentrating on developments in the last twenty years regarding policy instrument choice and uncertainty. The field of forest economics has expanded rapidly in the last two decades, and yet there exists no up-to-date textbook for advanced undergraduate-graduate level use or rigorous reference work for professionals. Economics of Forest Resources fills these gaps, offering a comprehensive technical survey of the field with special attention to recent developments regarding policy instrument choice and uncertainty. It covers all areas in which mathematical models have been used to explain forest owner and user incentives and government behavior, introducing the reader to the rigor needed to think through the consequences of policy instruments. Technically difficult concepts are presented with a unified and progressive approach; an appendix outlines the basic concepts from calculus needed to understand the models and results developed. The book first presents the historical and classic models that every student or researcher in forest economics must know, including Faustman and Hartman approaches, public goods, spatial interdependence, two period life-cycle models, and overlapping generations problems. It then discusses topics including policy instrument choice, deforestation, biodiversity conservation, and age-class based forest modeling. Finally, it surveys such advanced topics as uncertainty in two period models, catastrophic risk, stochastic control problems, deterministic optimal control, and stochastic and deterministic dynamic programming approaches. Boxes with empirical content illustrating applications of the theoretical material appear throughout. Each chapter is self-contained, allowing the reader, student, or instructor to use the text according to individual needs.

Book Resources and Planning for Economic Development

Download or read book Resources and Planning for Economic Development written by Archana Bhargava and published by Northern Book Centre. This book was released on 1991 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inter-relationship between man, resources and development is the point of discussion and elaboration in the present volume. In the wake of integrated rural regional development, it is imperative to envisage development as socio-economic change for betterment of masses involving local resources and incorporate interest. Such a structural change in orientation of planning requires resource evaluation and allocation on microscale in detail. Utilizing the contemporary techniques, evaluation of potentials, present utilization and possibilities of optimum utilization of resources of a relatively less developed region, i.e., Sagar Division of Madhya Pradesh is attempted. This division provides an example of how only basic attributes of resources are taken care of ignoring the combinational ones in the existing system of spatial organisation developed under top-down planning. The widening disparity can be minimized by planning on micro-level. A comparatively new approach of identification of planning units, incorporating characteristics of both formal and functional regions, has been attempted. As such the present volume can serve as model for resource-based development planning of depressed regions.

Book Forest Economics

Download or read book Forest Economics written by Daowei Zhang and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-09-15 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forestry cannot be isolated from the forces that drive all economic activity. It involves using land, labour, and capital to produce goods and services from forests, while economics helps in understanding how this can be done in ways that will best meet the needs of people. Therefore, a firm grounding in economics is integral to sound forestry policies and practices. This book, a major revision and expansion of Peter H. Pearse’s 1990 classic, provides this grounding. Updated and enhanced with advanced empirical presentation of materials, it covers the basic economic principles and concepts and their application to modern forest management and policy issues. Forest Economics draws on the strengths of two of the field’s leading practitioners who have more than fifty years of combined experience in teaching forest economics in the United States and Canada. Its comprehensive and systematic analysis of forest issues makes it an indispensable resource for students and practitioners of forest management, natural resource conservation, and environmental studies.
