Description: On Tuesday, March 6th the Alabama Cooperative Extension System, in partnership with University of Tennessee Extension, will host a timber management workshop in Pell City. The program, titled "What to Do with Degraded Hardwood Stands: Assessment, Potential Treatments, and Management Tradeoffs", will address the causes, issues, and management techniques to avoid and improve mismanaged or damaged hardwood timberlands. Stands which have repeatedly seen the most valuable trees removed, commonly known as high-graded or select cut forests, are left with poor quality trees and species of very low economic and wildlife value. Also, stands with logging damage, those with trees poorly suited for the site, and also grazing, insect, fire and weather related damage may also be considered degraded. However, with focused and deliberate management, these stands can be revived. This meeting will outline that process; discussing the causes and ways to avoid degrading or mismanaging hardwood stands along with presenting specific management options and techniques that landowners and managers should implement in order to reach their management objectives while maintaining healthy and productive hardwood timberlands.
