Abstract

A cooperative area was established on the Glenwood Ranger District, Jefferson National Forest, to demonstrate the effectiveness of silvicultural treatments in minimizing gypsy effects to the public and forest resource professionals and provide additional research data on the effectiveness of the treatments versus direct insect treatments. The silvicultural treatments have been installed and the demonstration area is now available for tours.
