A guide to valuing the full range of services and materials obtained from forests and woodlands. It shows how the complicated network of benefits can be untangled and sets out the different approaches needed to value them. It also covers the analysis of plant-based markets.
Forests and woodlands provide an enormous range of goods and services to society, from timber and firewood to medicinal plants, watershed protection, destinations for tourists and sacred sites. Only when these are understood and valued can forests and their resources be properly managed and conserved. This work shows how the complicated network of benefits can be untangled and sets out the different approaches needed to value them. It covers the analysis of plant-based markets, non-market valuation and decision frameworks such as cost-benefit analysis.
