Book excerpt: Excerpt from Potential for Producing Ponderosa Pine Plywood in the Black Hills A major advantage of producing plywood in the Black Hills area of South Dakota and Wyoming is prox imity to major markets. Plywood produced there could be delivered to Great Plains and upper Midwest markets at a freight cost lower than that from other major softwood plywood producing regions. Market potentials for softwood plywood in the United States are very strong for the foreseeable future. However, because ponderosa pine is not a well established plywood species, there is some question about the share of the market it can command. Because Black Hills ponderosa pine yields primarily C and D grade veneers, its utilization would be limited mainly to plywood products made from these grades, such as roof and wall sheathing, siding, or flooring. Other special plywood products for use in new residential, homeowner, nonresidential construction, and indus trial markets seem promising also. Small volumes of B Patch and better veneer might be marketed as stock for products where appearance is of some importance, such as cabinets. In addition, recent developments in performance standards for sheathing panels, including plywood, may have expanded market possibilities for woods such as ponderosa pine. Performance-rated sheathing panels are designed, manufactured and identified for specific construction end uses (american Plywood Association Such panels conform to criteria for panel strength, stiffness, durability, stability and other properties relevant to the end-use. If structural criteria are met, panels can be made entirely from veneer faces bonded to a reconstituted wood core, or from reconstituted wood. In the case of plywood manufactured from ponder osa pine in the Black Hills, the provisions of Product Standard 1-74 (american Plywood Association 1974] remain applicable. However, it is possible that such plywood could now obtain upgraded span ratings through testing for sheathing end-use applications. See the appendix for details about sheathing applications and span ratings. Plywood variables such as veneer thickness and orientation, along with inherent wood properties, would determine in part how well such panels meet the standards for performance-rated sheathing.

This book was released on 2018-09-28 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Economic Potentials for Particleboard Production in the Black Hills Analysis of three different sized plants for the Black Hills indicated that large economies of scale would result primarily from more efficient use of labor, overhead, and capital investment. The smallest plant projected - 33_mm ft2 per year - could not be expected to generate adequate earnings and would likely run into severe financial difficulties during weak market periods. The largest plant - 100 MM ft2 per year - could be expected to produce attractive financial returns, at typical levels of market price, and should have strong survival capacity in the soft markets that are to be expected based on past cyclical record of demand for particleboard. This study was performed concurrently with a study on the economic potential of producing plywood in the Black Hills.

Book excerpt: "A tale of diversity within our damaged landscapes, The Mushroom at the End of the World follows one of the strangest commodity chains of our times to explore the unexpected corners of capitalism. Here, we witness the varied and peculiar worlds of matsutake commerce: the worlds of Japanese gourmets, capitalist traders, Hmong jungle fighters, industrial forests, Yi Chinese goat herders, Finnish nature guides, and more. These companions also lead us into fungal ecologies and forest histories to better understand the promise of cohabitation in a time of massive human destruction."--Publisher's description.

Download or read book Sustainable Management of Pinus Radiata Plantations written by Donald J. Mead and published by Food & Agriculture Organization of the UN (FAO). This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Pinus radiata (radiata pine) is a versatile, fast-growing, medium-density softwood, suitable for a wide range of end-uses. Its silviculture is highly developed, and is built on a rm foundation of over a century of research, observation and practice. Radiata pine is often considered a model for growers of other plantation species. This book explores current knowledge of, and experience with radiata pine forest plantation management and examines its long-term sustainability. Radiata pine management needs to integrate the biological aspects of tree-growing, with socio-economics, management objectives, practical considerations and other constraints and opportunities. Although stands of radiata pine may appear to be simple, they are actually quite complex ecosystems because they contain large, long-lived trees that change dramatically over time and interact in changing ways with the environment and with other organisms. The focus of this book is on the principles and practices of growing radiata pine sustainably. It also looks ahead to emerging challenges facing radiata pine plantation management, such as the effects of climate change, new diseases and other threats, and meeting changing product needs and societal demands."--Page 4 of cover.

Book excerpt: Winner of the Christianity Today Book Award, Fiction In Eden Mine, the award-winning author of Black River examines the aftershocks of an act of domestic terrorism rooted in a small Montana town on the brink of abandonment, as it tears apart a family, tests the faith of a pastor and the loyalty of a sister, and mines the deep rifts that come when the reach of the government clashes with individual freedom If I stay here, Jo, I know you could find me. If you wanted to, you could find me. For generations, the Fabers have lived near Eden Mine, scraping by to keep ahold of their family's piece of Montana. Jo and her brother, Samuel, will be the last. Despite a long battle, their property has been seized by the state through eminent domain—something Samuel deems a government theft. As Jo packs, she hears news of a bombing. Samuel went off to find work in Wyoming that morning, but soon enough, it's clear that he's not gone but missing, last seen by a security camera near the district courthouse?now a crime scene?in Elk Fork. And the nine-year-old daughter of a pastor at a nearby church lies in critical condition. Can the person Jo loves and trusts most have done this terrible thing? Can she have missed the signs? The last time their family met violence, Jo lost her ability to walk. Samuel took care of her, outfitted their barn with special rigging so she could still ride their mule. What secrets has he been keeping? As Jo watches the pastor fight for his daughter, watches the authorities hunt down a criminal, she wrestles with an impossible choice: Must she tell them where Samuel might be? Must she choose between loyalty and justice? Between the brother she knows and the man he has become? A timely story of the tensions splintering families and communities all over this country, S.M. Hulse's Eden Mine is also a steady-eyed gaze into the ideals of the West and the legacies of violence, a moving account of faith in the face of evil, and a heartrending reckoning of the terrible choices we make for the ones we love.
