| Tiivistelmä: | In this article the contribution of material flux analysis and agent analysis to the transition towards improved regional wood management is examined. Integrating the two methods, this article provides a wood flow analysis for forests, wood processing industries and consumption in Appenzell Ausserhoden, Switzerland. The results show that the forest is underutilized and this jeopardizes long-term sustainable development. There are two main causes for the underutilization: firstly, harvesting trees is unproductive for the wood prices are too low, and secondly, consumer wood demand and the current supply from forest owners are not equivalent. |
