Excerpt from The Biological Potential and Ecological Factors of Small Woodlot Ecosystems in North Carolina, 1978
The purpose of the Task Force was to help the citizens of North Carolina realize the potential of their forest resources.
North Carolina ranks fifth among the states in area of commercial timberland. Over small woodlot owners own eighty percent of the forestland, but these lands are producing only forty percent of their potential.
Reforestation, good management, and selective cuttings are difficult to practice on small woodlots, especially, when so many owners are involved. In addition, marketing opportunities plus social and technical factors com pound the problem.
