2011<br />

ABSTRACT<br />

This objectives to generate economics information about sustai<strong>na</strong>ble forest ma<strong>na</strong>gement<br />

(SFM), and so to collaborate in the elaboration of policies seeking to foster the ratio<strong>na</strong>l use of the<br />

land in the State of Acre. In this way, using as study area the Antimary State Forest, were calculated,<br />

at interest rate of 6%, 8%, 10% e 12% a.a., the production cost, the net present value, as well as<br />

the land expectation value related to this SFM, in 2011. The results generated made possible the<br />

followings conclusions: (1) due to the fact that the production cost of sustai<strong>na</strong>ble forest ma<strong>na</strong>gement<br />

is greater than the forest replacement tax charged the Acrean environment agencies, it can be<br />

recognized as indirect economics barrier for the timber firm to seek obtain its log coming from<br />

ma<strong>na</strong>ged areas; (2) the price for the stumpage played by the local forestland owners, as they carried<br />

out forest ma<strong>na</strong>gement (US$ 28,31/m 3 ), did not remunerate this activity, at interest rates used in this<br />

study and (3) the costs and receipts values from forest sustai<strong>na</strong>ble ma<strong>na</strong>gement, calculated in this<br />

study, would make possible that, in the area and period studied, this productive process would be<br />

remunerated, at interest rates adopted, according to the market price for land forest, played in this<br />

region (US$ 283,05/ha).<br />
