Is climate smart forestry a utopia if the preferences of landowners are not considered? (UTOPIA)

Acronym

LUKE_HY_JYU

Description of the granted funding

The objective of the UTOPIA project is to develop methods to support stakeholders in implementing climate smart forestry, which advances carbon neutrality but also considers financial objectives. In the analysis, a landscape is composed of holdings and holdings are composed of stands. Holdings have typically different owners that have different preferences about what kind of management is practiced in their stands. We focus on supporting decision making in this setting and finding the most preferred solution among multiple conflicting objectives. The research is implemented in the Natural Resources Institute Finland, University of Eastern Finland and University of Jyväskylä.
