Intermediate cultural practices

Abstract

What are these interesting sounding things? Are they theory, are they pie in the sky, fantasies of desk foresters - or are they the real McCoy - something the landowner needs if he is going to make his woodlands pay a return on his investment. To list briefly, shall we say they are pre-commercial treatments, marginal commercial treatments, commercial thinnings, pruning for improved quality and perhaps a few more that we all generally recognize.
