• We develop a forest-level model that considers hybrid poplar plantations on private and public land, and estimates how the plantations impact harvest levels and net present values. With this model we simulate three policy changes: 1) hybrid plantations on private lands, with allowable annual cuts calculated over combined private and public lands; 2) the first policy, but in addition hybrid poplar plantations are allowed on public lands; and 3) the second policy, with the addition of carbon offsets.
