Analysis of the Wildlife Estates Label evaluation methodology and evaluation of the label perspective in Estonian forest management
The aim of the master’s thesis is to analyze the suitability of the Wildlife Estates label evaluation methodology in the Estonian context on the example of the Järvselja Training and Experimental Forestry District. Based on this work, the question whether the label is suitable for Estonian forestry can be answered. The strengths and weaknesses of the label are also highlighted. The WE label is compared to PEFC and FSC certificates to answer the question of why Estonian landowners should prefer the WE label to timber certificates. The motives for applying for the label and possible developments in the benefits of the label are also mapped.
