However, when discussing the same concept, different fields use different terminologies. For example, in forestry, the term "standing stock" is used to refer to the total amount of timber trees in a forest, which can be sustainably harvested annually. In fisheries, the term "maximum sustainable yield" (MSY) is the highest yield of a fish stock that can be taken over a long period without jeopardizing the future productivity of the stock. In agriculture, the term "carrying capacity" refers to the maximum number of livestock that a land area can support sustainably. In summary, sustainable yield has various synonyms depending on the industry and resource type.
