70 Million Trees Initiative Boosts Durham Planting Plan
The Woodlands Improvement Act of 1966 drives a surge in tree orders with 400000 trees slated for private Durham County land this year, doubling prior records. Nurseries will favor seedling stock, reducing transplanted stock and enabling more plants per land area, but seedling roots pose harvesting challenges. A machine is sought to reliably remove seedling trees from soil to meet rising demand.
