Abstract
With a long history of forest management that includes many contributions to the science of silviculture, the Federal Republic of Germany is intensively and realistically practicing multiple use. The small kind base and heavy population admit no other choice. Recreation is a leading use, but protection of water supplies, preservation of natural areas, and amelioration of climate are also important. Diversity in stands, age classes, and treatment is the key to achieving these purposes while also providing timber for industry.
