Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forest Owners and Timber Management in Michigan The original forests in Michigan contained roughly 380 billion board feet of sawtimber (spar hawk 1929, p. This is more than 15 times the present sawtimber volume. Although there was some early hardwood logging in southern Michi gan, it was the pine forest of the Saginaw Valley, the Thumb area, and, a little later on, areas farther north that _made Michigan famous as a midwestern lumber producer. Increased demand from eastern markets and the settlement 'of the Prairie States provided the impetus for the rapid growth of the pine lumber industry in Michigan after 1850.

Book excerpt: Because family forest owners own the majority of forestland in the country, many states attempt to incentivize them to be active managers of their woodlands. Property tax incentive programs provide family forest owners with certain tax breaks, credits, or exemptions in exchange for developing a written forest management plan. Michigan's Qualified Forest Program (QFP) is examined here because it provides context for analyzing landowner behavior. High non-compliance penalties provide some assurance that forest management practices will be completed. The ability of parcel characteristics (stand acres, forest type, condition (size and density), and region) to predict forest management practices at the stand level is evaluated. Certain variable categories are significant in predicting forest management practices on QFP enrolled land. Forestry incentive program managers, forestry practitioners, and policymakers could use these results to predict family forest owner management decisions and focus conservation efforts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Completely revised and updated, this new edition of The Forests of Michigan takes a comprehensive look at the natural history, ecology, management, economic importance, and use of the rich and varied forests that cover about half of Michigan's 36.3 million acres. The book explores how the forests regrew after the great Wisconsin glacier began to recede over 12,000 years ago, and how they recovered from the onslaught of unrestrained logging and wildfire that, beginning in the mid-1800s, virtually wiped them out. The emphasis of the book is on long-term efforts to sustain the state’s forests, with a view of sustainability that builds not only upon the lessons learned from native peoples' attitude and use of trees, but also on the latest scientific principles of forest ecology and management. Generously illustrated and written in an engaging style, The Forests of Michigan sees the forest and the trees, offering both education and delight.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It has been said that Michigan's nineteenth century white pine stands were the finest the world has ever seen. Dense, parklike stands, more than 150 feet tall, covered vast areas northward from the Bay City- Muskegon line. The sheer quantity of timber lured many adventurous entrepreneurs and enterprising farmers to Michigan. Lumber became a mainstay of Michigan's economy as logging interests and railroad entrepreneurs became adept at harvesting, transporting, and processing pine logs. Many considered the pine to be practically limitless. In October of 1871, the first indication of a troubled future occurred when Michigan settlers experienced fires unlike any they had ever seen. Following two months of serious drought, and fed by hundreds of small fires set by land-clearing operations, much of northern Lower Michigan erupted in flames; dry winds fanned the many small fires into one unbelievable conflagration that swept entirely across the Lower Peninsula, from Lake Michigan to Lake Huron. Many towns were reduced to ashes, among them Holland, Glen Haven, Huron City, Sand Beach, White Rock, and Forestville. Navigation was interrupted on Lake Huron and as far downriver as Detroit because of the heavy smoke. More than 200 people lost their lives. Michigan's State Forests recounts how an abandoned, cutover, and often burned wilderness has been converted once again into highly productive and protected public lands. For more than 100 years, these lands have been preserved, managed and developed to form one of Michigan's great assets, not only for economic development but also as enhancements to our quality of life.
