Has statement Projection of stand development increases knowledge base. The use of growth and yield models to provide information about the stand development is key for improving decission making.
Has evidence Information about hte impact of management alternatives on future stand development is key to select an alternative instead of another. Knowledge of potential management alternatives is limited among the users. Therefore, growth and yield models allow testing the impact of a large set of management alternatives.
Has consequences The inclusion of growth and yield models in DSS allow showing outcomes of large sets of potential management alternatives which in fact enlarges the decision space and helps DM to develop better management plans.
