The article substantiates the theoretical and methodological approaches to determining the economic assessment of ecological and social functions (services) of forest resources in relation to the timber valuation, as well as the main directions for its use in the context of sustainable spatial forestry. A variant classification of forest resources functions is proposed, the peculiarity of which is as follows: forest resources are considered in the format of forest resource space and forest management space; forest resources are presented in relation to their diverse productivity, which determines the volume of forest ecosystem services flow. From these perspectives the coefficient system of economic value of ecological and social functions (ecosystem services) of forest resources in annual measure concerning rent estimation of a wood stock is expanded. In the system format the directions of economic estimation use of ecological and social functions of forest resources are formed as follows: information-analytical and ecological-economic mechanism of forest management in sustainable forestry system.
Information and analytical direction includes the following components: forest management; state cadastre and forest accounting; forest monitoring; forest inventory; scientific forestry and ecological component. Within the environmental and economic mechanism of forest management in the system of sustainable spatial forestry development it is offered to use economic assessment of ecological and social functions (ecosystem services) in the following directions: planning, designing, programming, exploitation and reproduction of forest resources; payment for the forest resources use on a multi – purpose basis; pricing for ecosystem forest products and services; evaluation of forestry effectiveness; assessment of economic losses in the system of ecological and economic responsibility; capitalization of forest resources; forest certification.
Key words: coefficient, ecological and social functions, ecosystem services, economic assessment, forestry, forest resources.
