Abstract
When planning a book devoted to the management of industrial forest plantations, it is indispensable to incorporate into it the main economic analysis tools which 8 should be applied in any management plan for these forest systems. This chapter focuses on these issues, proposing them from the perspective of a decision-maker which aims to obtain information either on the profitability of its investments, on the optimal rotation which should be associated to these plantations, or on how to apply some tools based on operational research which could help it in its decision making. That is why Chap. 5 presents some obvious links both to Chap. 2, and, essentially, to Chap. 6, since some of the results obtained with the methodologies which will be developed will be constituted as inputs of the models set up in subsequent chapters
