Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shortleaf Pine Management Shortleaf pine does not compete well with hardwood brush. The brush must be controlled if your shortleaf pine is to maintain a dominant posi tion in the oak-pine type. Because of faster early growth, loblolly is preferred over shortleaf for planting in the Coastal Plain and Piedmont. Because shortleaf withstands cold, ice, and drought, it is preferred over loblolly in the Blue Ridge, Valley and Ridge, Appalachian and Interior Low Plateau Physiographic Provinces, and in the Ouachitas and Ozarks where temperatures may go below -10f Shortleaf is adapted to sites too infertile, dry, and warm for white pine, but cannot survive or compete on droughty and infertile sites inhabited by Virginia pine. Although shortleaf grows best on north aspects it is generally found on dry, often rocky, ridges and south slopes. Sandy loam top soils, however, are preferred. Sands are a poor growth medium. Subsoil textures should be heavier than topsoils. Shortleaf grows poorly on both excessively drained and poorly drained sites. The saying goes that it hates to get its feet wet.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shortleaf Pine, Its Economic Importance and Forest Management Shortleaf pine is only moderately durable in contact with the soil. The presence of a large amount of resin, as in lightwood, is'commonly thought to increase materially the natural durability of the wood. Sapwood is much less durable than heartwood; it can not ordinarily be expected to last over two or three years, while good heartwood may last seven or eight. Years. When not in contact with the soil or under conditions particularly conducive to decay, the wood has given good satisfaction.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Longleaf Pine Management Early settlers encountered a virgin longleaf pine forest from southeastern Virginia to east Texas (figure Some have estimated the original total acreage to be 50 to 60 million acres. Now that this land is settled, only 5 million acres of longleaf pine remain. What factors contributed to such a drastic change? Conversion to other uses and species, unfavorable cut ting practices, and failure to provide proper regenera tion conditions are the principal culprits. But recent research and an array of successful experiences are giving hope that some of the lost ground can be re gained for this valuable southern pine species. Longleaf pine grows well on a variety of sites, but is most often found on sandy soils low in organic matter in the surface portion and medium to strongly acid. Drainage often ranges from good to excessive. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-09-19 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Costs and Returns of Managing 100, 000 Acres of Shortleaf and Loblolly Pine for Sustained Yield When available, the costs and returns computed in this paper are those actually applying to the acres and when not available, they were obtained from economic investigations of private forestry under similar forest and economic conditions. Although the computed costs and returns are better than those obtained from average forest stands of the Upper Coastal Plain, they are nevertheless conservative and can be obtained on many large properties under present economic conditions. It should be clearly under stood, however, that the figures given apply to the property described and can not be applied safely to other properties without taking into considera tion the volume and growth of the growing stock, productive capacity of the site, and available markets. Lumbering operations have been conducted continuously on this property for more than BO years. During the early part of this period only the larg est and best trees were cut, but during the greater portion of the period practically all merchantable trees at least 10 inches in diameter at breast high were removed. A few years ago, minimum diameter limits of 14 inches for pine and 16 inches for hardwoods were adopted, and 2 years ago selective cutting was put into practice. All trees are now marked by an experienced man before cutting. Reasonably good fire protection has been practiced for about 13 years, resulting in excellent stands of reproduction and saplings. Most parts of the property are accessible to trucks over im proved public or ungraded community roads, and during the past few years additional roads built by the CCC have made truck logging much more economi cal than previously.

Great pine forests stretched along the valleys of the Connecticut and Merrimac Rivers and grew along the shores of Lake Champlain in western Vermont.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Plan to Transfer Low-Cost Loblolly Pine Management Technology to Appropriate Users: December 1990 Loblolly pine is the most abun dant of the southern pines, ao counting for 50 percent of all yellow pine volume in the South. Its silvical characteristics make it well suited for low-cost natural regeneration and management. These facts become the basis for solving a major southern forestry problem: declining forest growth and productivity occurring mostly on non industrial private forest lands. This problem can often be solved by link ing low-cost management alterna tives with loblolly pine regeneration and management.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Proceedings, Symposium for the Management of Pines of the Interior South: Knoxville, Tenn., Nov. 7-8, 1978 A basic objective of timber management is to produce the most high quality timber possible in the shortest period of time. Manipulating stand density by thinning helps accomplish this goal because trees that would be lost through mortality are harvested and because the remaining trees grow faster in diameter and trees are able to produce usable products quicker. We began this study in a 30-year-old natural shortleaf pine stand to see how this species responds to thinning. Specifically, we wanted to know how dense the residual stand should be to produce the most wood and what yields can be expected from the thinnings.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Shortleaf Pine in Missouri: Stand Density Affects Yield Although thinnings will help maintain good diameter growth rates of individual trees, the current volume growth rates probably cannot be maintained indefinitely. They belong to a period when height growth still is rapid. After height growth begins to level off, volume growth will depend entirely on stem enlargement. It is recommended that 30-year-old shortleaf pine stands be thinned to leave 70 square feet of basal area. The quality of trees left after the second thinning is at least as good in these stands as in any others. As the stands grow older, however, the best stocking density is expected to increase to about 90 square feet basal area per acre.
