It will eventually increase more if they cut 3%/year.DCNR is hacking it down fairly aggressively around here.Problem is,up until the last two years,they had to fence almost every timber sale or the deer cleaned it up.
If the deer have been over browsing SFL for over 50 years preventing regeneration, why didn't the number of forested acres of SFL decrease by over 50%? In fact,why didn't it decrease at all?
