An introduction to silvicultural practices for private woodlands. Woodland owners often hear foresters discussing the use of silviculture as the best means to sustainable manage private forested property. Deliberate and attentive management, using silvicultural principles and practices, can help woodland owners better accomplish their objectives. Join Dr. Peter Smallidge, Cornell University Cooperative Extension – Department of Natural Resources, for this webinar to learn more about silviculture and it’s benefits to private woodlands. The webinar will define silviculture, describe the components of the forest manipulated through silviculture, discuss and illustrate examples of tools and practices used, and illustrate the changes in a forest following different types of silvicultural activities.

A request for SAF Continuing Education Credits is pending.
