Study on Sustainable Forest Management Strategy on Lishui District Forest Farm of Nanjing Municipality

Taking the forest resources of Lishui District Forest Farm of Nanjing Municipality as the case study object, five management types were classified by analyzing the location advantage, the functional requirements, the resource status and the forest management purposes. The five types were the strictly protected type for water resource conservation forest, the highly protected type for the key scenic forest, the restrictedly protected and managed type for public welfare forest, the intensively managed wood product forest, and the intensively managed nontimber product forest. Combined with the forest ecosystem management theory, closetonature management theory and the related research results, the varied forest management measures such as thinning, repair planting and closing the hillside to facilitate afforestation for each type of forest were proposed.
