Abstract
⺠Necessary compensation to avoid the loss of natural forests is probably smaller than expected. ⺠The introduction of “Optimized Land-Use Diversification” produced declining compensation. ⺠Compensation reduced from US$ 176 to US$ 124/ha per year under ignorance of risks. ⺠Modeling risk-avoidance further lowered compensation to only US$ 47/ha per year.
