The Forest Carbon Sink Optimization Model (FOX), developed by REKK, is a bio-economic model that integrates biological growth functions with economic decision-making to maximize profits. FOX incorporates the benefits of wood products and introduces the concept of carbon payments for delayed harvesting, while also considering carbon release costs during final cuts.

The results were presented to representatives from the BiH government, academia, civil organizations, and practitioners during a workshop held on June 13, 2023.
