Abstract: A unique characteristic of timberland investment is the relatively short period of value realisation following a long period of capital investment. The return on capital is critically associated with the outcome of this harvesting and marketing phase. Timberland owners benefit greatly from undertaking a deliberative and informed decisionmaking process to select the most appropriate harvesting and marketing option. Understanding of the risks and conflict of interest issues are important in the selection of a provider for this service.
