Goals
|
The forest, which is a natural resource, is an endless resource when used sustainably. The fact that this resource is an economic resource leads to the conclusion that economic principles are also effective in its operation. Forests can be used to the extent of production. Utilizations above the production power lead to the gradual depletion of the resource. Within the scope of this course, the situation of forest products in the world economy and trade will be examined, and the methods and tools that should be applied in order to benefit from forests will be introduced..
