Hardwoods management options hold promise

Abstract

Since the 1950s, dramatic changes have occurred in the hardwood resources of the Midsouth - Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Tennessee. Thousands of acres of upland hardwood forests have been converted to pasture for beef cattle. Clearing for agricultural crops, mainly soybeans, has removed more than 4 million acres of prime hardwoods in the bottomlands.
