TREE FARMING PROFITS
DEPEND ON GROWERS

Is there any money in growing
trees in North Carolina? If so, how
much return can you expect from
your Investments
"The individual growers circum-
stances determine whether or not
planting forest trees is a good in
vestment," declares John Gray, who
heads forestry work for the N. c.
Agricultural Extension Service.
BY circumstance" Gray means
that each landowner must consider
Land conditions, alternative land use,
and management practices in de-
Gliding whether it would be profit
able to invest in tree planting.
The forestry specialist advises
anyone interested in going into
timber production have Ia trained
forester look over the proposed site
to determine whether or not plant
ing would be profitable.
For an idea of what you might
expect from planting trees under
varied conditions, Gray cites the
following examples. All are based
on stumpage (standing timber)
values at present day prices and
do not include amy cost.sharing
payments or Soil Bank rental pay
mentS.
In the Eastern Piedmont a plant
alton of loblolly pine on better than
average upland soil produced $3.50
worth of pulpwood per acre at rs
years of age. No Trimmings We're
made.
A plantation of slash pine on
fine sandy ridge in the Sandhills
contained $275 worth of pulpwood
and sawtimber per acre when q
years old. No Trimmings were made.
White pine on quilted, north-fac-
ing land in the mountains was
worth 500 an acre at Is years, $171
at 80 years, $500 at 40 years and
$40O at SO years with no thinning
program.
In another part Of the planta-
ton, q systematic thinning prog
ram over a 50-year period increased
yields by 40 per cent.
A planting Of slash nine on h'~',-
quality land in the Coastal Plain
brought $3.50 worth Of pulpwcod
per acre at 1s years OF age.
