20.500.12556/RUL-114182 European private forest owner typologies a review of methods and use The increasing diversity of non-industrial private forest owners (PFOs) in Europe has been recognized by policy makers and the forestry sector at large. Typologies of these owners have been developed to provide an understanding of the diversity of owners' attitudes, values, beliefs, management objectives and behaviour. We analyzed PFO typologies from 28 European countries published from 1985 to 2015 in peer-reviewed journals and grey literature with respect to 1) research approaches and methods used; 2) typology objectives and problems addressed; 3) policy and management recommendations given. Using an on-line questionnaire we asked the first authors of the most relevant publications to retrospectively assess 4) the use of their typologies in education, science and forest policy. Most of the 66 publications reviewed share the common objective of providing a better understanding of forest ownership. Typologies were also developed to address roundwood mobilization, delivery of public goods, forest management approaches, involvement in PFO associations and entrepreneurship. The most common methodological approach was quantitative where owners were grouped by k-means clustering into 2 to 6 types and labelled with various names. Most frequently used labels were Multiobjective owners, Recreationists, Investors, Farmers, Indifferent owners, Conservationists, Multifunctional owners and Self-employed owners. Policy implications remain vague. The typologies had mostly been used in teaching and occasionally by politicians, civil servants or stakeholders. Only a half of the typologies had a follow-up study or was updated over time by the authors. After decades of classifying PFOs, it seems necessary to explore the link between typologies and forest owners' overt behaviour. family forests landowners non-industrial private forest owners policy instruments literature review classification lastniki gozodov tipologija Evropa zasebni gozdovi cilji gospodarjenja true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Članek v reviji 2020-02-19 12:48:26 2020-02-19 12:48:27 2025-04-11 04:18:06 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2019 0 0 Str. 21-31 Vol. 99 2019 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 630*68(4)(045)=111 1389-9341 10.1016/j.forpol.2017.09.010 4884902 21383173 1-s2.0-S1389934117301351-main.pdf 1-s2.0-S1389934117301351-main.pdf 1 D5C2E181838DD20871DD6D5F1446699C 2b9b11921d5bfc029e56ff2599ba269fb439996585b85d36571b4516590b6b39 9ca2cf28-15e0-11f0-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=201687 https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1389934117301351 0 734e6ad8-15e0-11f0-b232-0050569b8976 https://repozitorij.uni-lj.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=201686 Biotehniška fakulteta 0 0 0
