Who cares what happens with planted forests? A public typology to assist community engagement and communication

Forest Policy and Economics, 2024, vol. 169, issue C

Abstract: Typology studies relating to forestry have typically tried to characterise private forest owners for the purposes of designing policies to fit owners' motivations and drives. However, little is known about how the public may perceive forestry both during and at the end of a planted rotation. As such, indications of public concern for current forest management practice can help to identify a different set of segments to influence decision making. Such a typology can help our understanding of social acceptability towards forest management practice as a legitimate consideration for wider public engagement in forest policy development.
