Program enrollment and acreage response to reforestation cost-sharing programs.
A study was conducted to assess the total acreage of southern pine that would have been planted after clear-cut harvest if existing government Forest Improvement Programs had offered different levels of cost-sharing to nonindustrial private forest owners. Five acreage prediction models were used to...

Five acreage prediction models were used to produce estimates under a range of conditions. The results indicate that the way landowners react to cost-sharing can have a substantial impact upon the predicted effectiveness of a forestry improvement program. The predictions illustrate the importance of separating and accounting both for the number of tracts enrolled and for the size of the enrolled tracts. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
