Abstract

Commercial harvesting, carried out on 39 percent of the privately owned timberland (5.3 million acres) in Arkansas from 1978-88, had a heavy impact on forest industry timberland. On a percentage basis, cutting was heaviest in pine forest types. Fifty-four percent of the heavily cut pine and mixed pine-hardwood stands were at least 60 percent stocked with pine following harvest.
