Forestry Economics introduces students and practitioners to all
aspects of the management and economics of forestry. The book
adopts the approach of managerial economics textbooks and applies
this to the unique processes and problems faced by managers of
forests. While most forestry economics books are written by
economists for future economists, what many future forest and
natural resource managers need is to understand what economic
information is and how to use it to make better business and
management decisions. John E. Wagner draws on his twenty years of
experience teaching and working in the field of forest resource
economics to present students with an accessible understanding of
the unique production processes and problems faced by forest and
other natural resource managers. There are three unique features of
this book: The first is its organization. The material is organized
around two common economic models used in forest and natural
resources management decision making. The second is the use of case
studies from various disciplines: Outdoor and Commercial
Recreation, Wood Products Engineering, Forest Products, and
Forestry. The purpose of these case studies is to provide students
with applications of the concepts being discussed within the text.
The third is revisiting the question of how to use economic
information to make better business decisions at the end of each
chapter. This ties each chapter to the preceding ones and
reinforces the hypothesis that a solid working knowledge of these
economic models and the information they contain are necessary for
making better business decisions. This textbook is an invaluable
source of clear and accessible information on forestry economics
and management for not only economics students, but for students of
other disciplines and those already working in forestry and natural
resources.
