Valuation of forest resources on watershed areas: selected applications in Makiling Forest Reserve / - p.3 - Vol. 26 No. 1 First Sem 1999 .

The valuation of resources found in the watershed area is important in assessing the impacts of changes in the watershed. While the change will have positive impacts which are short-term in nature, there are long-term environmental damages associated with economic benefits. This paper gives a rational judgment on the soundness of such changes through cost and benefit analysis. The watershed approach is utilized to capture the effects that are relevant in the analysis.
