Abstract: |
Many timberland owners value their land for more than just timber. They realize that the land can provide many benefits and that management plans can be designed to achieve these benefits. A North Carolina survey shows that aesthetics is the primary reason many people own timberland. Other benefits include recreation, timber production, water quality protection, and wildlife preservation. Improving small woodlands is a step-by-step process. This publication will help woodland owners become familiar with these steps, with. the concepts of woodscaping, and with ways to integrate concerns for wildlife, beauty, and resource management in a manner that is compatible with current land-use activities. |
