Evaluating timber sale bids using optimal bucking technology
1991
This study documented and field tested a method of using optimal bucking procedures to aid in cruising and stand value appraisals. The CRUISE/BUCK method can estimate the type of logs which should be cut from a stand and evaluate the potential revenue if different sets of mills are chosen as the purchasers. This type of pre-harvest analysis can aid managers in how to "merchandize" the stand. Alternative methods of collecting diameter measurements were compared.
