OCTOBER 80- 1914 Peapfe we know MCVA news Rocky Raccoon has a few more facts about the woodlot and it's management, which he would like to share with you. The ideal woodlot would contain a variety of valuable species capable of a continual output of valuable products, both economic and aesthetic. This would require a crop of healthy trees at every stage of development from seedling to maturity. As already mentioned, to obtain full benefits from your ‘%oodlot, it is important to protect from fire, grazing, insects, disease and rodents. Some other important facts you ,.hould remember are: - trees are a crop which comes to maturity, declines in value . then dies - natural seedirig and restocking will occur if •the area is protected from fire and livestock - woodlots without young growth will die out - a tree will require more space for crown and roots as it gets older, and so will crowd out other trees • thinning is to concentrate production of wood on more valuable trees • various tree species differ in their soil, moisture and light requirements • it takes 60 - 120 years to grow a tree to maturity, this should be realized before unwittingly destroyihg a tree • trees can be periodically cropped due to differences in age, classes, thinnings and intermediate cuts • the shading of some species by others must be considered, as requirement for sunlight and moisture may not be met for trees closer to the forest floor • individual trees are usually classified on the basis of tree diameter measured to about 4/ feet above ground. These ratings are- seedling (less than 1"), sapling (1" ; 4"), pole (5" - 9";, small sawlog ( 10" - 14"), medium sawlog (15" - 19: .") and large sawlog (20" - larger) If you would like • more information concerning woodlots and woodlot management, just ask at the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority office at Box 5, Wroxeter.
