Management method that produces relatively homogenous forest structures. Forest rotation is controlled by planting, thinning and regeneration felling. During the regeneration felling all the trees in the area are removed.
Retention forestry
Management method almost similar to even-aged management, but some individual trees (dead or alive) or tree groups are left standing during the regeneration fell. This aims to enhance the structural diversity of the harvesting area.
Management method where only some of the trees are removed in one harvest. Forest regenerates through the trees left standing and no plantation is needed. The forest structure stays heterogenous and this can be achieved by cutting single trees (selective felling) or tree groups (gap felling).
