Title:
Central Highlands (Victoria) Plantation Potential Analysis Methodology and Results July 1998
Publication Date:
01/07/1998
Description:
In July 1996 the Ministerial Council on Forestry, Fisheries and Aquaculture endorsed an industry target to treble the area of Australia's plantations by 2020 (Plantations for Australia - the 2020 Vision 1997). Plantations 2020 requires strategies to optimise economic and environmental returns to plantation investors and landowners. Planning and decision making at regional (strategic) and local (implementation) levels should include assessments of plantation suitability, based on adequate data and robust analytical techniques. This report demonstrates an analytical method for assessing the plantation suitability of a region that is being developed by the Bureau of Resource Sciences to support the implementation of policies and programs such as Plantations 2020. The focus is on methods for assessing plantation potential at a regional level, therefore outputs are not intended for use in planning or investment decisions at the local scale. Includes tables, figures and maps
