Forests management and jobs forestry

Forest (jobs forestry) management
is the branch of forestry (jobs forestry) concerned with the overall administrative, economic, legal, and social aspects and with the essentially scientific and technical aspects, especially silviculture, protection, and forest (jobs forestry) regulation. This includes management for aesthetics, fish, recreation, urban values, water, wilderness, wildlife, wood products, forest (jobs forestry) genetic resources and other forest (jobs forestry) resource values. Management can be based on conservation, economics, or a mixture of the two. Techniques include timber extraction, planting and replanting of various species, cutting roads and pathways through forests (jobs forestry), and preventing fire.

Increased environmental awareness may contribute to an increased public mistrust of forest (jobs forestry) management professionals.
Many tools like GIS modelling have been developed to improve forest (jobs forestry) inventory and management planning
