Alabama
Consulting Forester Directory
A Service of
the Alabama Forest Owners' Association supported by
a grant from the Bradley/Murphy Forestry & Natural
Resources Extension Trust
Welcome to the Alabama Forest
Owners' Association Consulting Forester Directory,
your source for finding a consulting forester who
can help you with your forestry needs. Connecting
forest owners and forestry consultants is important
to the Association and the Bradley/Murphy Trust. We believe this is the secret to wise
forest management and that the benefits of these
connections have been proven by many.
Why You Need a
Consulting Forester
In the past, it has been a good
investment just to own timberland. But now land prices are more
expensive and good management has become the key to profitability. A
forestry consultant is a full-time, independent forester whose services
are available to the public and who does not work for a timber buying
business.
A consulting forester can help
establish property lines, assure that tax assessment and deed records
agree, set up basic records, set goals, help you understand your land
and timber conditions, list the things that should be done, evaluate
alternatives, select, schedule and carry out work, and keep records of
income, expense and volume.
