Forest management plan with Timbro

Forest management plan – why it is needed and what should be included

A forest management plan is a document that we can compare to a business plan for a company. This document contains all the important information about your property, as well as a long-term action plan that outlines when and approximately how much your profit from forest management could be and when all other activities related to forest management should be carried out.

The development of a sensible forest management plan requires in-depth study and on-site inspection of the property, because, as we have repeatedly emphasized, there are often significant differences between the information in the documents and the real picture in nature. The forest management plan should preferably include the following information:

1. Property area and location
2. Management objectives
3. Division of the territory into forest land groups in accordance with forest inventory standards
4. Distribution of forest stands by bonitet and dominant species
5. Summary of forest stand area and stock distribution by tree species and age groups
6. Information on biotopes and micro-reserves
7. Volume of roads and drainage systems
8. Tree felling plan
9. Forest regeneration plan and young stand tending plan
10. Forest infrastructure restoration plan - roads, ditches

We want to emphasize once again - selling your property should be the ultimate goal, Timbro will always try to find ways to make you earn without selling your property. On the other hand, smart forest management is a way to earn more both today and in the long term, where a key factor is a sensibly developed forest management plan. Using a smart approach to forest management, it is possible to earn more immediately and significantly increase the value of the property – this will be a kind of investment if there is a need to sell the property to quickly get a larger sum of money.
