Managing forests sustainably is a complex business.

It requires a mindset of forest care while seeking to provide goods and services for present and future generations. It involves optimising the provision of community benefits of wood and non-wood products, of nature conservation, of ecosystem services such as clean air and water, as well as other community needs including spiritual, aesthetic and recreational experiences. It requires a broad skills base and information gathered over time so that trends and infrequent but potentially catastrophic events can be allowed for and incorporated into the management cycle.
