1 Target diameter cutting experiments Lars Drössler, Per-Magnus Ekö, Nils Fahlvik Southern Swedish Forest Research Centre
2 Overview Background: Target diameter cutting in Germany Experimental sites in Sweden One experiment in south Sweden Method Estimates of future growth, harvest intervals and ingrowth (if wanted: economic comparison to clearcut and planted spruce) Effect of initial diameter distributions Conclusion

14 Conclusion Compared to clearcut and planting spruce on this site, the wood production was 1/3 lower for the next 50 years Soil preparation or other silvicultural measures to achieve sufficient ingrowth after 50 years is recommended The first target diameter cutting provided 50% of the estimated income by a clearcut. Assuming min. 100 m3/ha removals, harvest intervals of years were projected (with EUR continuous income under scarification scenarios).
