About This Book

The text outlines the economic and practical case for conserving and managing Pacific Coast forests, examining their value to communities, industry, and agriculture; problems of fire, taxation, and idle cut-over land; and policy measures for prevention and reforestation. It presents technical methods for sustained management, species-specific guidance on natural and artificial regeneration, planting and seeding rates, growth and yield considerations, cost estimates, and fire-control techniques. A chapter addresses tree culture on farms and an appendix suggests tax reforms and organizational steps for implementing forest policy.
