The design of Australia’s plantation estates can have a significant impact on other environmental values such as the conservation of biodiversity. This RIRDC report contains key management recommendations based on the results of two large-scale, long-term research programs examining the integration of plantation management and the conservation of biodiversity. It summarises extensive research findings that have been drawn from over 80 scientific articles published since 1996.
The report is targeted at a wide audience including policy makers in natural resource management, plantation managers and those responsible for the conservation and management of biodiversity, and researchers with interests in the fields of forest ecology and management, biodiversity conservation or both.
