The role of non-market valuation in forest management and recreation policy

Abstract
Forests, and particularly those where native and mixed species are grown, provide a variety of non-wood values, important among which are recreation and environmental services. Substantial progress has been made in recent years in estimating economic values on these services. A considerable amount of research on forest values has been carried out recently in tropical and sub-tropical eastern Australia, some of which is reported in the following papers. The need for estimates of non-wood forest benefits is apparent, and it is clear that further development of techniques and a greater understanding of the way these values can be integrated into public-sector decision making is required. © 2002 Economic Society of Australia (Queensland) Inc.
