Longleaf Seedling Trends

Abstract

Demand for longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.) seedlings continues to increase throughout the Southeast. Overall production of longleaf pine seedlings has increased annually for at least the last 3 years (51 percent increase over the past 3 years), while demand for seedlings has continued to exceed the supply. There are several reasons for the increased interest in longleaf pine.
