2002
Zudrags, M. (Latvia Univ. of Agriculture, Jelgava (Latvia))
Today more than 17.5% of agricultural land is abandoned in Latvia. Effective use of this land is essential for rural development planning, as well as growth of national economics. Afforestation is one of alternative uses of abondoned and marginal agricultural land. Requisite investments and management costs are calculated for forest plantations of pine, spruce, birch and aspen. The analysis of investment appraisal is based on several criteria - net present value, internal rate of return, benefit/cost ratio and equivalent annual annuity.
