Reforesting such areas is important for many reasons in addition to production of lumber, fence posts. fuelwood, and Christmas trees. Windbreaks or shelterbelts enhance the beauty and comfort of farm buildings and protect field crops from strong winds, Good woodlots and shelterbelts increase the sale value of a farm. Forest cover helps reduce run-off and controls soil erosion by wind or water. Forested areas also improve wildlife habitat and enhance the aesthetic beauty of the lan- .;adapt. More assistance than ever before is now available to landowners for planning and establishing this new forest crop.
