Plantation Forest Management — Requirements for responsible management of plantation forests

Apstrakt

This document specifies requirements for the responsible management of plantation forests, as defined in Clause 3.

It establishes auditable and verifiable requirements, including minimum mandatory elements and performance‑based indicators intended to support measurable sustainability outcomes at the forest management unit level. The document provides a technical framework that may be used in conjunction with voluntary or regulatory programs.

The standard is technology‑neutral and outcome‑based. It does not prescribe specific silvicultural practices or operational methods, allowing the use of legally approved technologies and management approaches that achieve the required performance outcomes.
