Shelterbelts Beneficial, SD Study Urges Tree Coverage Expansion
BROOKINGS Aug. 12 Special. State Planning Board and U S Forest Service call for at least one acre of trees per 32 acres of cropland in South Dakota, up from one acre per 300. Soil Conservation Service backs tree strips on two sides of each quarter section, with 30 to 50 percent of land as shelter. Frank Rockwell notes a long term goal of five to eight acres of trees per quarter section, while local conditions determine practical limits. Shelterbelts can cut wind velocity, reduce erosion, snow drift, and fuel needs, boosting yields across the farm landscape.
