Selective cutting promoted for sustainable forests
Miss Mary McKee of Somerville Alabama reports a 40 acre tract scaled and a system of selective cutting will be used. County agent E P Garrett notes that many forest owners adopt planned harvesting to assure continuous timber crops. In mature stands groups of trees are left to reseed while in mixed stands only mature trees are cut. Diseased and weak trees are removed for fuel to make way for younger healthier growth.
