Forest Management for Biomass
for Bioenergy Production
Activity
Objectives
•Identify forest type
•Identify opportunities for forest biomass production
•Identify site characteristics affecting forest biomass production
•Identify management options for maximizing biomass potential
Upland Hardwoods
Lowland Hardwoods
Natural Pine
Planted Pine
Mixed Oak-Pine
Conclusions
• All Southern forest types provide opportunities for biomass production
• Site characteristics affect the biomass opportunities that can be realized
• Management should be done with specific goals in mind
