Direct Seeding Southern Pines: History and Status of a Technique Developed for Restoring Cutover Forests (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781508592921)

For centuries, foresters throughout the World have been intrigued by the idea of establishing forest stands by sowing limited quantities of seeds at the right time on a suitable seedbed. Following the harvest of southern pine forests during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the great need for reforestation in the South called for innovative ideas. Millions of acres of cutover forests lay decimated with no residual source of seed that could provide natural regeneration.
