The Indonesian Selective Logging System is a guideline being applied by most of the forest concession holders in managing the tropical rain forests of Indonesia. Since its launching, problems arose concerning its capability to guarantee the future forests, due to the fact that some of the requirements in the system were hardly fulfilled ia
practical situation.

One of the most appropriate way with which to evaluate the system is growth and stand projection analysis. A stand growth model derived through Leslie Matrix principle is considered to have the highest compatibility with Indonesian tropical forests.

It was found, based on the data taken from three concession areas in East Kalimantan, that the operationalization of the growth model could be recommended. Stand structures were projected in this study, and the performance of the Indonesian Selective Logging System was evaluated at the end of the cutting cycle. It was observed that the forest would gain a lower volume of harvest at the second cutting cycle. Mathematical programming techniques were used in order to give a more comprehensive evaluation of the system. Some alternatives in the harvesting scheme were generated and discussed.
