Forest inventory in Bangladesh was
studied by Anon (1960), Slavicky (1978),
Choudhury and Chowdhury (1983) and
others. The literature concludes that
Choudhury ‘and Chowdhury (1983) gave a
mathematical formulation for volume-age
relationship.
This paper considers mathematical formulation
of forest inventory. Firstly, definitions
of some mathematical notations
used in this paper are given. Subsequently,
some fundamental terminology of forest •
inventory are treated. Attempts have been
made to prove some text-book results from
the mathematical point of view and to
workout a mathematical definition of the
time of felling of a tree. Finally, some
