F&W Managers Report Increased Reforestation

April 20, 2022/0 Comments/in news-2022 /by mandr-fw

Improving timber markets and the resulting escalation in harvest activity drove an uptick in reforestation activity during the 2021/22 tree planting season, according to the annual survey of F&W managers.

Reforestation activity by managers increased by 33 percent over last season, with more than 24,000 acres of trees planted across F&W’s operating footprint.

As in years past, the South practices the most widespread tree planting, whereas natural regeneration is more common in the Northeast and Central regions. In Northern California, the manager reports that the increase in acres planted this year was due primarily to reforestation efforts on land burned by wildfires in 2020 and 2021.

Managers reported increased use in container tree seedlings, and several said they faced challenges to getting sites planted, including wet fall weather that delayed site prep and contractor and labor shortages.
