What are the components of the estimated value of a tree?
The value a tree is composed of 2 values, which have an opposite effect.
- Lease and Maintenance Value
At the time of planting the lease and maintenance value of a tree is calculated at 100% of the value of the tree. This lease and maintenance value pays for the acquisition of the tree, planting and maintenance, as well as the lease.
The lease and maintenance value thus decreases continuously.
- Biomass Value
The biomass of a tree is calculated from the volume of wood of the tree, which steadily increases with age (max. to 50 years), multiplied by the tree price obtainable in the country of production, minus exploitation costs.
The biomass value of a tree thus increases continuously.
Under the point estimated value (total), all estimated values of individual trees contained in the offer are added up.
