Managing Oak-Pine Stands

Starting Time: 00:57

John L. Willis, Ph.D., works as a Research Forester for the Southern Research Station. He recently had a study published in Forests about mixed stands as a reasonable alternative to pine plantations or exclusively managing for hardwoods. Historically, removing either oak or pine and focusing exclusively on just one has been a goal of many landowners. But managing both has re-emerged as a goal for many of today’s landowners. If you’re a typical landowner, you won’t want to miss Willis’ insight into how to make that happen successfully.
