Sažetak
The diversity of management types of urban forests in Zagreb area creates a need for their thorough valuation. That process usually is performed by applying contingent valuation method. The official method for valuation of non-timber benefits of forests in Croatia is the professional assessment, which has no special provision for forests in and around urban areas. This paper gives an overview of urban forests benefits, valuation methods applied in Croatia and enlists a hedonic pricing method application on urban forests in Zagreb area, whose objective is to spark the usage of new econometric methods of valuation in Croatia and to give contribution to the possibility of revising official professional assessment method.
