From the text...'Providing red-cockaded woodpecker old-growth nesting habitat and extensive associated foraging habitat is problematic within a mulitple-resource management strategy. Three strategies to manage this species' habitat include: (1) designated nesting stands with associated foraging habitat; (2) extended pine rotation lengths; and (3) recruitment stands plus extended rotations. Simulations of these strategies for the SRP site help identify strengths and weaknesses inherent in each strategy. The most conservative strategy is combined use of extended rotations and recruitment stands. Field implementation of any of theses strategies can be greatly enhanced by problem-specific models, especially optimization models with alternative resources as objectives and constraints.'
