Description |
| Habitat Enhancement |
Utilizing low density plantings of various tree species
to improve the habitat of selected flora and fauna creating
a vegetative mosaic that can be continually managed. |
| Hunting Cover and Edge Creation |
Improve hunting through the creation of edges and strategically
placed sightlines while simultaneously providing cover. |
| Natural Buffer Creation |
Create audio/visual buffers through the use of natural
vegetation to reduce the affect of adjacent impacts. |
| Reclamation |
Planting of trees in areas that have been affected
by the removal of other resources, such as mining. |
| Restoration |
Planting of trees to mimic what would naturally/historically
occur on a site. |
| Timber/Pine Straw Production |
Planting of pine trees typically at a rate of 726 to
851 trees per acre with the objective of raking pine
straw and harvesting timber in the future. |
| Wetland Enhancement/Creation |
Planting of wetland tree species to enhance or create
a wetland. Wetland trees are typically planted
at a rate of 250 trees per acre. |
