Methods of Harvesting Forests
![Page 17: Geography of Canada Forestry.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56649f175503460f94c2db5d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Trees up to 25" in diameter can be cut with the XL25.
Methods of Harvesting Forests
![Page 18: Geography of Canada Forestry.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56649f175503460f94c2db5d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Loggers remove every tree and leave a barren landscape.
When replanted, the new forest grows uniformly in
species and size
Methods of Harvesting Forests
Clear Cutting

Involves clear-cutting only part of an old growth forest
Small groups of seed bearing trees are left so the area will
regenerate.
Shelterwood method is often used in forests that have grown and aged evenly
Methods of Harvesting Forests
Shelterwood Cutting

Only mature trees of the desired size, type or quality

Too few trees are replanted?
= Soil erosion
