METHOD OF TIMBERLAND MANAGEMENT |
摘要 |
A method of managing timberland that utilizes multiple genetic crops. The method comprises planting within a plot of land a first genetic crop in a substantially linear pattern. This first genetic crop is selected for yielding trees with high lumber values. The first genetic crop is planted at a first crop spacing and at a first row spacing that is beneficial to yielding trees with high lumber value. Interplanted along the substantially linear pattern is a second genetic crop. The second genetic crop is selected for yielding trees for other than lumber value. The second genetic crop is planted at a second crop spacing that is shorter than the first crop spacing. Pruning the first genet ic crop at a time such that the final value of the first genetic crop will be maximized. Harvesting of the second genetic crop occurs at a time when either the final value of the firs t genetic crop will be maximized or the final value of the second genetic crop is high. The second genetic crop is harvested at a time when the second genetic crop is about 8 to 14 years old. The first genetic crop is harvested at a time when the first genetic cr op is 20 to 30 years old.
