- Economics of
growing slash and loblolly pine to a 24-year
rotation with and without thinning, fertilization,
and pine straw – net revenue and
rate of return.
- Economics of
growing slash and loblolly pine to a 24-year
rotation with and without thinning, fertilization,
and pine straw production – soil expectation
value and annual equivalent value.
- Economics of
growing slash and loblolly pine to a 24-year
rotation with and without thinning – impact
of thinning at various stumpage prices.
- Economics of
growing slash and loblolly pine on a 33-year
rotation with and without thinning, fertilization,
and pine straw – net revenue and
rate of return.
- Economics of
growing slash and loblolly pine on a 33-year
rotation with and without thinning, fertilization,
and pine straw – annual equivalent value and
soil expectation value.
- Economics of
growing slash and loblolly pine to a 33-year
rotation – impact of thinning at various stumpage
prices.
- Financial analysis
of growing loblolly pine in a 33-year rotation,
with wildlife food plot and hunting lease
assumptions.
- Economics of growing slash and loblolly pine under various levels of
management — a 24- versus 33-year rotation comparison
- The economic impact of changing stumpage prices when growing slash and
loblolly pine under a 24- adn 33-year rotation
Chemical versus Mechanical Site Preparation in Loblolly Pine Stand Management
Stand establishment is a very critical decision-making phase in the life of a pine
plantation. Site preparation (chemical, mechanical, combinations with or without burning),
species selection, seedling genetics, seedling size, weed control, fertilization, and spacing
decisions made prior to, during, and soon after planting have long-term effects on stand survival,
growth, wood yields, rotation age, and products grown.
Growth Response and Economics of Herbaceous Weed Control in Loblolly Pine Stand Management
Stand establishment is a very critical decision-making phase in the life of a pine
plantation. Site preparation (chemical, mechanical, combinations with or without burning),
species selection, seedling genetics, seedling size, weed control, fertilization, and spacing
decisions made prior to, during, and soon after planting have long-term effects on stand survival,
growth, wood yields, rotation age, and products grown.
