Recently forest companies face the prospect of reduced wood supply and increased costs in order to meet the environmental demand. In this paper, we include the traditional two-zone land allocation framework, which consists of ecological reserves and integrated forest management zones, with the triad (three-zone) scheme that adds a zone dedicated to intensive timber production. Then we model the problem as a mixed integer programming. The problem is solved using a direct search approach
