Silviculture Practices Sample Clauses

Silviculture Practices. Silviculture is the art and science of managing the establishment, growth, composition, health and quality of forests to meet the needs and values of the landowners and society on a sustainable basis (BC nd). Aspects of silviculture include harvesting, regeneration (e.g. site preparation, tree planting, sowing), stand tending (e.g. spacing, pruning) and protection of forest health. The overall silviculture strategy for the SQCF is to ensure prompt reforestation of all harvested areas and to design harvesting and stand management activities so that the diversity of tree species, stand types and structure are compatible with the natural range of variability at the stand and landscape level. The following sections describe how the overall silviculture objectives will be implemented through the choice of silviculture system, reforestation and stand tending practices.

Silviculture Practices. Current forest management legislation, regulation and policy, focus silviculture efforts on the establishment of free- growing stands after harvesting. This activity will be a legal obligation associated with the successful management of our Community Forest. Our intent will be to maximize the value of this investment in basic silviculture through strategies such as planting as quickly after harvesting (i.e., very short regenerations delays) and utilizing genetically improved stock. These strategies, combined with improved estimates of site productivity will be reflected in subsequent timber supply modelling, AAC determinations and management plans for the Community Forest area following the first five year period. We will promote ecologically appropriate mixed species plantations and consider implications of climate change when developing our silviculture prescriptions. We will also explore and utilize silviculture strategies in the Community Forest that result in improvements to the mean annual increment (MAI) and ultimately have a positive effect of timber supply.
