From the Publisher
Forestry management is a numerate discipline which lends itself well to spreadsheet applications. This practical book introduces the basic concepts of spreadsheets and explains how to use them to calculate profit in forestry, how to compare one option with another and how to deal with the basic data needed for silvicultural decisions. It also enters the environmental debate, showing how to calculate the economic effects of proposals to alter forestry management in the pursuit of environmental gain. All the instructions given can easily be adapted to suit any make of spreadsheet and the models are also available from the author on disk.
