German term or phrase: Selbstwerbung
Mit stark abnehmendem Platzbestand und notwendigem Einkaufsstopp von Industrieholz im Landesforst und **Selbstwerbung** wurde eine realistische Auswertung der Daten vom Holzplatz möglich.

Ich weiß zwar, dass es sich hierbei um einen speziellen Begriff aus der Forstwirtschaft handelt, aber ein englisches Äquivalent habe ich trotzdem noch nicht gefunden.

qualified foresters
Explanation:
...and from qualified foresters, a realistic evaluation...

This is a sod to answer, because there is no direct translation IMO. However, given Kim's research and the URL, this might fit the bill as an explanation.

self-harvest


Explanation:
Harvesting your own timber – if you have the time, experience, and skills, you may
choose to harvest the selected trees yourself. The benefits of a self harvest are that you
have complete control over the harvest and you may receive substantially more revenue
from the timber sale because you do not have to pay a logger for harvesting the trees.

licensed timbering (operations)


Explanation:
Division of Forestry, Virginia:

"TIMBERING NOTIFICATION FORMS

Loggers, have you completed your operation, started a new operation, or moved to a new location? If so, the Timbering Notification Form is now available electronically for your convenience.

This form is in an Excel format so that it can be saved to a computer and the information entered via the computer and submitted to the appropriate Forestry office for the area in which you will be conducting the logging operation.

[...]

The DOF has set up 6 toll-free timbering notification hotline numbers for timber operators to call to give notification of job completions or request extensions. Licensed timbering operators may use these numbers to notify the appropriate DOF Office of an earlier completion date than specified on their Timbering Notification Form. Extensions past the specified dates on the Timbering Notification Form may also be obtained by calling the appropriate DOF Office. Licensed timbering operators also are required to give notification if a job is closed down for more than 7 days due to weather or other circumstances and may do so by calling the appropriate District Office."
