Reforestation Plan

Forest landowners should plan for reforestation before their timber is cut. This is particularly important if the plan to reforest the site calls for natural seeding from the existing timber stand. For this to be successful, the timber must be harvested at the right time of year and some preparation of the land prior to harvest may be necessary. For planting new seedlings, a properly planned harvest that removes all merchantable trees will help reduce costs of reforestation.
