Abstract
Sustainable forest management may be considered an evolutionary step beyond sustained yield management. Although objectives related to sustainable forest management are common in Canada, policy means of achieving these objectives are rarely spelled out. Currently, forest tenure policies are dominated by concepts associated with sustained yield that may preclude the realization of sustainable forest management objectives. This paper identifies how tenure policies based on sustained yield concepts of allowable annual cuts could change in order to address a more holistic view of forests associated with sustainable forest management. Key words: forest tenure; forest policy; sustained yield; sustainable development; forest management; allowable annual cutsKeywords
