Presentation summary:
In this webinar attendees will hear about the two primary elements of silviculture: regeneration methods and intermediate treatments.  These elements are used at specific times to guide the growth of woodlands and allow landowners and land managers to achieve their desired objectives. This program is intended to provide landowners and foresters insight into how the natural growth of woodlands can be modified to efficiently produce high-quality timber, wildlife habitat, aesthetic landscapes, or recreational opportunities
