Rising Global Interest in Farmland: Can It Yield Sustainable and Equitable Benefits? (2011, background): “Forest plantations now account for between half and two-thirds (if pulp/fiber is included) of global wood production (Carle and Holmgren 2008) and occupy some 140 million ha globally, 54 percent of it (75 million ha) in developing and transition economies.”
Increasing stand structural heterogeneity reduces productivity in Brazilian Eucalyptus monoclonal stands (2016, background): “For instance, even though the plantations’ share of land comprised only 7% of the world’s forested land, their share in the supply of roundwood, for example, was 30% in 2005 and is estimated to reach up to 80% by 2030 (Seppäla, 2007; Carle and Holmgren, 2008).”
Do timber plantations contribute to forest conservation (2016, background): “These would align with the categories ‘productive plantation’ and ‘trees outside forests’ referred to in Carle and Holmgren (2008). http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.envsci.2015.12.010 1462-9011/ã 2015 Z.
