Explanation The old − growth primary forests are the forests that have been not influenced by the human activities for hundreds or thousands of years and have grown naturally. The old forests are rich in biodiversity. The forests that have been redeveloped after the destruction of forests in such a way that the effects of deforestation got diminished are called secondary forests. The comparing and contrasting features of the maximum sustainable yield, ecosystem based management, and adaptive management are as follows: Maximum Sustainable Yield Ecosystem Based Management Adaptive Management The maximum sustainable yield is the method that includes utilization of the half of the resources and letting down rest of the resources to recover naturally. This gives a maximum yield of resources. The ecosystem − based management includes planning methods that help in sustaining the ecosystems and ecological dynamics. The sustainable forests are planned and the best approaches are used for the minimization of the effects of the logging succession
