Tree Shaking Machine Aids Cone Collection in a Douglas-Fir Seed Orchard (Classic Reprint) by Donald L. Copes Pdf

Excerpt from Tree Shaking Machine Aids Cone Collection in a Douglas-Fir Seed Orchard Orchard managers are reluctant about using shakers until it can be demonstrated that such mechanized harvesting methods are nondestructive. We decided to conduct a shaker trial in a Douglas-fir seed orchard during the 1982 cone harvest to determine if mature cones could be harvested from 7 to 9-m tall orchard trees without causing excessive tree damage. Specific evaluations were percentage of cone removal, amount of top breakage, the relationship of cone removal with amount of top breakage, and effect on cone removal and top breakage of balanced versus unbalanced weights in the shaker head. Tree shaking was carried out at the Beaver Creek seed orchard of the usda Forest Service near Corvallis, Oregon, during the last week of August 1982. Ninety-two trees were shaken. Evaluation of percent cone removal and top damage is reported on 10 to 14-year-old grafted Douglas-fir trees. Trees ranged in height from 7 to 9-m and had stern diameters that ranged from 9 to 25 cm as measured 30 cm above the graft unions. The orchard consisted of ten 2-ha blocks, but trees in only four of the blocks were shaken. Each block contained approximately 300 trees, or 10 to 15 ramets of 25 clones. Some trees produced good cone crops, but the proportion of producing trees were small. The same clones were not present in more than one block, so comparisons of treatments between blocks are limited.

Silvicultural Research and the Evolution of Forest Practices in the Douglas-fir Region by Anonim Pdf

Silvicultural practices in the Douglas-fir region evolved through a combination of formal research, observation, and practical experience of forest managers and silviculturists, and changing economic and social factors. This process began more than a century ago and still continues. It has had a great influence on the economic well-being of the region and on the present characteristics of the regions forests. This long history is unknown to most of the public, and much of it is unfamiliar to many natural resource specialists outside (and even within) the field of silviculture. We trace the history of how we got where we are today and the contribution of silvicultural research to the evolution of forest practices. We give special attention to the large body of information developed in the first half of the past century that is becoming increasingly unfamiliar to both operational foresters andperhaps more importantlyto those engaged in forestry research. We also discuss some current trends in silviculture and silviculture-related research.
