Teak Planner functionally is a growth simulator for teak plantations. Its scope of application is the range of growing conditions that is available in Kerala. This programme can be used to identify optimum thinning schedule and rotation age for even-aged teak stands under a range of site quality and management levels.
The optimum thinning schedule is that which maximizes the net present value of cash flows out of a variety of possible thinning schedule in a plantation. It also enables the user to make an investment plan by providing information on net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), benefit cost ration(BCR) and payback period(PBP) for a range of management options. The software is also an effective tool for financial valuation of the growing stock for commercial purposes.
