Incentivizing biodiversity restoration in European forests: Should we pay forest owners for implementing actions or for delivering results?
Action-based indicators and their result-based counterparts analyzed in the study
The EU Forest Strategy promotes payment schemes for private forest owners to support biodiversity. SUPERB’s study shows owners need 40-70% more compensation for result-based schemes. Payment methods such as instalments and multiple thresholds could lower costs. Owners’ land enrollment depends on their perceived ability to meet targets and property features.
