Abstract

Forest continues to be the dominant land use in New Hampshire. Three inventories of the State between 1948 and 1973 show little change in the total forest area but significant shifts in forest type and stand size. Average volume per acre has increased to over 1,400 cubic feet and 2,785 board feet. Growth continues to exceed removals.
