Building up a poorly stocked farm forest
1947
Williston, Hamlin L. | Rawls, Ike W.
Southerners have never had a better time to begin to practice forestry. Stumpage prices are up and, in the face of a short and still-decreasing supply of saw timber, may well stay up. The pulpwood market has expanded tremendously during the past decade and promises to continue strong. Fire protection becomes more efficient and widespread each year; thus investments in forests are safer than ever. This paper tells what happened when an abused and depleted stand of loblolly and shortleaf pines and hardwoods was placed under management. It shows that some income can be had while growing stock is being built up. Furthermore, it shows that pine growing stock will produce at a compound interest rate equal or superior to most of the sound investments today. Only a little imagination is needed to recognize opportunities for similar improvement in most other southern woodlands, large or small.
