This book was released on 2018-03-17 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cost Control in Timber Growing on the National Forests of the Northern Region The large-scale forestry enterprise of the Forest Service represents a most complex type of business from the standpoint of achieving cost control. Timber growing involves a number of interdependent actions. The degree of coordination achieved strongly influences both costs and results. A District Ranger may be simultaneously involved in timber harvest ing, slash disposal, site preparation, regener ation, stand improvement, and protection on a large number of areas. These activities must be pursued in proper sequence and at the proper time. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Cost of Growing Timber in the Pacific Northwest  as Related to the Interest Rates Available  to Various Forest Owners  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Cost of Growing Timber in the Pacific Northwest as Related to the Interest Rates Available to Various Forest Owners Classic Reprint written by Burt P. Kirkland and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-12 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cost of Growing Timber in the Pacific Northwest, as Related to the Interest Rates Available, to Various Forest Owners The cost per acre of growing timber anywhere depends on five main factors, viz. (i) The value of the land, (2) The cost of stocking it with young trees, (3) The administration of the operation and protection of the young timber, (4) The taxes, (5) The rate of interest. The cost per thousand feet depends in addition upon the productivity of the land in volved. For the purpose of this discussion, however, the statement may best be put in another way, namely, that the costs per acre are as follows: (1) Interest on the value of the land, (2) The cost of stocking it with young trees, (3) Interest on this amount from time of stocking to maturity, (4) The annual expenses for administration and protection, (5) Interest on each annual expense from time of expenditure to time of maturity of the timber, (6) The annual taxes, (7) Interest on each annual tax from time of payment to maturity of the timber. The total of these costs per acre, divided by the average product per acre gives the cost of producing board feet of timber. The amounts for some of these items vary with natural conditions, and of others, with the ownership of the land. Thus state or federal ownership modifies the element of taxes and changes the rate of interest. Private ownership might facilitate administration in some ways, though it can hardly be expected to reduce the cost, owing to the smaller areas administered. The amounts of the various items under various conditions and forms of ownership are discussed below. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Timber Growing and Logging Practice in the California Pine Region

Download or read book Timber Growing and Logging Practice in the California Pine Region written by Stuart Bevier Show and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-09-12 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Timber Growing and Logging Practice in the California Pine Region: Measures Necessary to Keep Forest Land Productive and to Produce Full Timber Crops As a broad conclusion, however, with the exception of limited situ ations which are dealt with region by region, the Forest Service has tremendous faith in the commercial promise of timber growing to American landowners. The law of supply and demand is working steadily to create timber values which in large portions of the United States will pay fair returns on forestry as a business. The economic history of other countries which have passed through a cycle of virgin forest depletion similar to that which the United States is now traversing, points to the same inevitable conclusion. The time is fast approaching when forestry, and forestry alone, will supply the enormous quantities of wood demanded by American markets. The fundamental laws of business must in the nature of things so operate as to enable the markets of forest products to be supp-lied at a profit to the grower of timber. The returns already being obtained from this form of land employment at many points in the Eastern United States show plainly enough that this relationship between the value of timber and the cost of producing it is already coming about to a marked degree.

Book Timber Growing and Logging Practice in the Central Hardwood Region  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Timber Growing and Logging Practice in the Central Hardwood Region Classic Reprint written by C. R. Tillotson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-05-03 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Timber Growing and Logging Practice in the Central Hardwood Region The second group of proposed measures constitutes 'what may be called the desirable forestry practice in the region concerned as far as our knowledge and experience to date enable us to determine it. These measures are designed to grow reasonably complete crops of the more valuable timber trees, making full use of the real produc tive capacity of the land. The recommendations are addressed pri marily to the landowner who wishes to use his property up to its full earning power for timber culture. It is impossible to frame any general set of measures of this character that are adapted to the individual needs of particular holdings or industrial establish ments. This is true particularly of forest regions like the North eastern States, which include a great variety of local situations both in the types of growth and in economic circumstances. Hence, in presenting this group of suggested measures, the Forest Service has attempted only to draw the broad outlines of the more general and fundamental things, with illustrative methods of forest practice. The details of intensive forestry, like the details of intensive agri culture or engineering, call for expert survey in working out the plans and methods best adapted to a particular tract of land or a particular business. One of the most important features of expert planning for the management of a particular forest property or for a supply of raw material for a particular forest industry is to devise, not simply woods operations that will produce full crops of timber, but also a scheme of logging that will afford a continuous yield of products desired, in order that sustained earnings may be realized or a sustained supply of raw material made available. In some cases it is not practicable to draw a hard and fast line between the first steps that will maintain some degree of productive ness on forest land and the more intensive measures that will bring the quantity and quality of wood produced up more nearly to an ideal management. Graduations between the two general groups of measures are inevitable. The Forest Service has not attempted, therefore, to deal with the two general types of forest practice as wholly separate and distinct but has rather endeavored to present a common-sense and practical résumé of the various steps in timber growing in the form that will be most helpful to the, man in the woods. The bulletins have been written for the landowner and the lumberman rather than for the technical forester. Their purpose is to put the main ideas into the most useful form, considering the special needs and problems of each region, for aiding the man to whom timber growing is a concrete business and logging problem.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Timber Growing and Logging Practice in the Western White Pine and Larch-Fir Forests of the Northern Rocky Mountains: Measures Necessary to Keep Forest Land Productive and to Produce Full Timber Crops This the Forest Service has attempted to do in a series of bulletins dealing with the 12 principal forest regions of the United States. The information presented has been gathered from many different sources, including the experience, as far as it was obtainable, of landowners who have engaged in reforestation. An effort has been made to bring together all that any agency has yet learned or demon strated about the growing of timber in the United States, and the results have been verified as far as possible by consultation with the forest industries, State foresters, and forest schools. These publica tions thus undertake to set forth in a simple form what are believed to be the soundest methods of reforestation as yet developed in our common experience and study in the United States.

This book was released on 2017-11-11 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Timber Growing and Logging Practice in the Douglas Fir Region: Measures Necessary to Keep Forest Land Productive and to Produce Full Timber Crops Timber culture, like the growing of farm crops, is necessarily gov erned-ih any country by the soil and climate, by the requirements of the native forest trees, and by the national economic circumstances. Lessons may be drawn from the experience of other countries, as the United States has drawn upon the forestry practice of Europe; but profitable methods Of growing timber, particularly under the wide range of forest types and economic conditions in the United States, can be evolved only from our own experience and investigation, region by region. Hence, to meet the demand for information on practical ways and means of growing timber profitably in the various parts of the United States, it is important that the results of our own experience and investigation to date be brought together and set forth in the clearest possible way. This the Forest Service has attempted to ddin a series of bulletins dealing with the 12 principal forest regions of the United States. The information presented has been gathered from many different sources, including the experience, as far as it was obtainable, of land owners who have engaged in reforestation.

Book National Forest Timber Supply and Stumpage Markets in the Western United States  Classic Reprint

Download or read book National Forest Timber Supply and Stumpage Markets in the Western United States Classic Reprint written by Darius Mainard Adams and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-19 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from National Forest Timber Supply and Stumpage Markets in the Western United States In the Western United States, National Forests provide nearly 36 percent of total soft wood timber harvest. Because of this significant supply, the auction process through which the rights to harvest National Forest timber are transferred to private firms has received extensive study in the economics and forestry literature. In the context of regional timber supply, however, the timber sale is only the first of several steps in the movement of National Forest timber from woods to mill. A comprehensive under standing of the functioning of regional timber markets and the role of National Forests in a region's timber supply requires some explanation of the disposition of the sold timber, the rates at which the timber is harvested, and the interaction between National Forest and other ownerships resulting from harvest decisions. These post sale elements of National Forest supply have received only limited attention in past research.

Book Timber Growing and Cutting Practice in the Lodgepole Pine Region

Download or read book Timber Growing and Cutting Practice in the Lodgepole Pine Region written by M. W. Thompson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-05-02 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Timber Growing and Cutting Practice in the Lodgepole Pine Region: Measures Necessary to Keep Forest Land Productive and Preferred Practice for Obtaining Fuller and More Timber Crops This the Forest Service has attempted to do in a series of publi cations dealing with the 12 principal forest regions of the United States. The information presented has been gathered from many different sources. An effort has been made to bring together all that any agency has yet learned or demonstrated about the growing of timber, and the results have been verified as far as possible by consultation with the forest industries, State foresters, and forest schools. These publications thus undertake to set forth, in a simple form, what are believed to be the soundest methods of reforestation as yet developed in our common experience and study in the United States. The Forest Service claims no finality for the measures proposed. In every country forestry has come about through a gradual evolu tion. Much is still to be learned about growing timber under Ameri can conditions. As time goes on, research and practical experience will add greatly to the success and certainty of the measures carried out in our woods, just as American agriculture and manufacturing processes have been perfected through experience and study. But we know enough about growing timber to go right ahead. Believing that the forest owners of the United States are ready to engage in timber growing on a large scale, the Forest Service has endeavored to place before them in concise terms the best suggestions and guides which the experience of this country to date affords. In these publications the measures proposed for a particular forest region have been arranged in two general groups. The first includes the first steps in forestry, or the minimum requirements of local physical conditions, to prevent timberland from becoming barren. These measures, in which the prevention of fire is of out standing importance, represent, broadly speaking, the least that must be done to keep forest lands productive. As Mr. Thompson points out, even these very simple things will bring back good stands of timber on many of the forest lands in the lodgepole pine region. By and large, however, they will seldom satisfy the land owner who wishes to make the most out of his property in timber culture. They represent rather the dividing line between keeping land in forest of some sort and allowing it to revert to a barren, treeless condition.
