1 Southern Pine Tree Size Dynamics Where s the Pulpwood? (Potential Diameter-class Imbalance in Southern Pines) Southern Forest Products Association Expo University 5 June 2013 Richard A. Harper, CF, RF Jeffery A. Turner Forest Resource Analyst USDA Forest Service Southern Research Station Forest Inventory and Analysis
2 Focus Points 1. FIA on-line tools issue regarding net growth by diameter/tree size has been revised 2. Historic indicators U.S. harvest share, procurement strategies, and tree planting 3. Primary focus FIA trend indicators by diameter class harvest type (final vs. partial vs. thinning) number of trees sawtimber size tree utilization by product groups net growth and removals net change (Net Growth Removals) change of total volume by DBH

Tree planting decline nowhere to plant, landowners not reinvesting, or both?
24 Take Home Points (con t) 6. Apparent decline in the number of trees for the 2, 4, and 6 DBH classes in GA (SYP/Private). 7. Total volume for 6 and 8 diameter classes shows decline in GA and for some 75 to 100 mile radius queries However, current volume still exceeds 1997 volume (SYP/Private). 8.
