Description:
New Forestry' refers to the new methods of forest management and timber harvest that are evolving in response to public concerns about clear-cutting and the impacts of logging on aesthetics, water quality, wildlife and biodiversity, and the health and sustainability of forests. These concerns apply to public and private lands and New Forestry seeks to provide forest management and timber harvest methods that minimize impacts and maintain fully functioning and healthy forests. New forestry methods are yet untested and remain to be fully demonstrated, despite the fact that probable implications include reduced harvests and increased costs. Safety factors and the extent of environmental benefits have not yet been measured. This paper reviews some of the new philosophy of forest land management and terminology commonly used to describe new management directions.
