Abstract
This study was focused on the planning of harvesting-production and marketing process in beech stands. İneboluForest Management District (FMD) has been selected as the study area. Potential beech timber forest with higheconomic values were identified, and estimated log production quantities were determined. In the marketing phaseof the products obtained from harvesting, the best-optimum marketing place points for Forest Sub-districtDirectorates were determined with the help of geographic information systems. In this study, as the potential forbeech timber areas of the İnebolu FMD, a total of 1482.2 hectares of land could be operated with timberproduction-harvesting oriented. According to the results, 82 % of the pure and mixed beech forests could bedirected to the stumpage and ramp sale and 18 % to depot sales. In this respect, during the production-harvestingand after production, the periods of encountering abiotic and biotic pests of beech logs are reduced. So degradationand economical losses could be minimized.
