Abstract
The harvesting of a renewable resource divided into classes and growing according to a deterministic, discrete-time, linear model is investigated. Harvesting policies involving the removal of different proportions of the classes in such a way that the yield is sustainable are considered. The harvesting policy which maximizes the yield is one in which each class is either completely harvested or not harvested at all, with at most k exceptional classes where k is the number of linear constraints imposed on the harvester.
