Most
farms have some cleared land that is no longer feasible to farm.
Government programs offering cost sharing and tax incentives make
these areas ideal for tree planting. Forest Management Services,
Inc. is familiar with the programs available and can help you develop
a tree planting plan and program that best suits your needs.
Planting trees is a complicated process. In addition to a tree planter,
it also requires familiarity with soil types, herbicide, tree seedling
health, and the follow-up care that young seedlings need.
We know that rice won't perform well if grown on a hilltop and that
corn is likely to fail if planted in a bog! The same logic
can be used with trees. Also, some trees like "wet feet" and
can tolerate long periods of flooding. Silver maple, cottonwood
and green ash are but a few. Others, such as white and black
oaks, and black locust can tolerate drier conditions.
Our knowledge of tree soils will prevent you from making irreversible
mistakes. Planting the wrong trees on a site will yield the
wrong results, but planting the right trees on a site means a healthy,
happy woodland investment.
Larry's forty years of reforestation experience will serve you well
at the start of your projects. We will help you in planning, tax
breaks, and government programs to a successful and economical investment.
