Abstract

New Brunswick is presently planting 20,000 ac. per year and expects to be planting nearly 60,000 ac. per year by 1979. Total productive forest area is 15,000,000 acres. The program is directly related to projected industrial demand and other forest uses. Plantations are established by scarification and planting of paper pot containers and bare root stock.
