Advice
New maple
publications available
Two new maple publications have
been developed to bring maple
producers the latest information on
Sugar Bush Management and
modern sap collection systems.
These publications will also be a
valuable reference for forestry
professionals and teachers
responsible for delivering education
programs. The publications were
developed under the leadership of the
Ontario Ministry of Agriculture,
Food and Rural Affairs with support
provided by the Ontario Maple
Syrup Producers Association and
other partners.
A Guide to Improving and
Maintaining Sugar Bush Health and
Productivity... this full -colour
publication provides guidelines
which will help maple producers
improve and maintain the health and
productivity of their sugar bushes. It
includes information on the
characteristics of productive maple
sites and stands, sugar bush and
maple orchard management
techniques and problems which can
affect the sugar bush. It replaces the
Ontario publication Sugar Bush
Management for Maple Producers
which was published by Clarence
Coons in 1975. The cost of this
publication is $20. Available in
English only.
Design, Installation and Main-
tenance of Plastic Tubing Systems
for Sap Collection in Sugar Bushes
... this definitive manual includes
comprehensive information on the
design, installation and maintenance
of modern sap collection systems. It
also includes operational profiles for
several commercial maple
operations. Dave Chapeskie,
Agroforestry Specialist, OMAFRA
and Lew Staats, former Maple
Researcher and Extension Specialist,
New York State, co-authored this
publication. Available in English
and French and sells for $15.
Both publications are available
