English term or phrase: sustainable yield
Definition from John Wiley & Sons:
The amount of a naturally self-reproducing community, such as trees or fish, that can be harvested without diminishing the ability of the community to sustain itself.

Example sentence(s):
  • Marine conservation requires a new ecosystem-based concept for fisheries management that looks beyond sustainable yield for individual fish species American Scientist
  • A judicious use of thinning might increase the level of the sustainable yield by prolonging the length of time in which large trees are rapidly accruing merchantable volume. Yale University School of Forestry
  • Sustainable yield is difficult to obtain definitively, because agricultural production is affected by climate, soil quality, and management practices in an interwoven way. Sciencedirect.com

bærekraftig avkastning


Definition from own experience or research:
Den maksimale avkastningen mennesket kan ta ut fra en art eller andre naturressurser uten at bæreevnen, dvs. ressursens evne til å opprettholde seg selv, forverres

Example sentence(s):
  • Mennesket kan ta ut en “maksimal bærekraftig avkastning” av en art eller andre naturressurser, hvis dette finner sted innen en grense der avkastningsnivået kan bli holdt konstant for all fremtid, det vil si, uten å forverre bæreevnen (Mysterud m.fl. 1993). - Bioteknologinemda  
  • For vågehval har forvaltningen vært basert på maksimal bærekraftig avkastning (MSY-tilnærming), der bestandsstørrelser ned mot 60 % av opprinnelig bestand teoretisk vil gi maksimalt langtidsutbytte - Kyst- og fiskeridepartementet
