TIMBER MANAGEMENT
Small or Large Tracts of Land
Management techniques can include: prescribed burning, planting, pre-commercial thinning, mid and late rotation thinning, fertilization, pruning, woody competition control, even-aged regeneration harvests, uneven-aged regeneration harvests, and/or restoration of a historic ecosystem.
Each timber stand can be different and have different management needs.
Whether you have owned your timberland for years or recently acquired or inherited it, you can determine and meet your land objectives by taking it one step at a time.
