| | Harvester (forestry) - encyclopedia article about Harvester (forestry). |
 | | In agriculture and gardening, thinning is the selective removal of seedlings or young plants to allow adequate space for the remaining plants to grow efficiently. | | | CTL is typically a two man, two machine operation with a harvester felling, delimbing and bucking trees and a forwarder that transports the logs from the felling to a landing area close to a road accessible by trucks. | | | Cut-to-length logging (CTL) is a system for mechanized forestry harvesting where trees are delimbed and cut to length directly at the stump area. |

| | Gifford Pinchot - A primer of forestry |
| | In countries where forestry is well developed it is usually to plant young trees of tolerant species under older intolerant trees, to make a acre for the soil and to prevent the growth of grass and weeds. | | | The Bureau of Forestry has found by many careful measurements that if all spruce trees 12 inches and over in diameter are cut from certain portions of the Adirondack forest, the younger spruce will grow up and replace the original stand of timber in about twenty years. | | | The foresters of France have perfected a most practical and effective general system of forestry, and have created the difficult art of controlling the floods of mountain torrents by planting trees. |

| | The labor force in the forestry sector is dominated by agricultural, forestry, fishing and related workers. | | | In the SIC system, forestry is a major industry, one of five such industries that form the agriculture, forestry, and fishing sector. | | | The reasons behind overall stability in forestry employment are: (1) stability in private timber harvest during the last two decades; (2) substantial changes in forestry management practices in recent years; and (3) changing mix of products harvested from the forest. |

| | The biggest barrier to forestry is the increased livestock extensification payments where farmers get a top-up payment of €80 per suckler cow and male animal provided the stocking rate on the farm is below a certain level. | | | However, a detailed analysis by Teagasc shows that 37,000 farmers could plant part of their farms with forestry and still avail of the maximum extensification payment. | | | As it is the farming community that are now primarily responsible for new planting so the profile of the forests being planted is changing. |
