Presentation summary:

There are many factors you should consider when deciding if your timber is ready to harvest.  Unfortunately, many woodland owners hastily make that decision when a prospective buyer knocks on their door. This webinar will focus mainly on the financial considerations of harvesting timber. But we’ll also explore the role of landowner objectives, invasive species, regeneration, and other factors to contemplate before deciding to harvest your timber. We’ll wrap things up with a brief review of how to successfully conduct a timber harvest.


Presented by:
David Apsley, Natural Resources Specialist, College of Food, Agriculture and Environmental Sciences Ohio State University Extension
