Excerpt from Potential Productivity of Forest Lands in Pine, Carlton, Aitkin, and Southern St. Louis Counties, Minnesota
The Forest Survey data indicate that the more valuable conifer types, such as pine, spruce-fir, black Spruce, and white-cedar, occupy only 14 percent of the commercial forest area (fig. 2 and tables 2 and 3 in Appendix). An additional 17 percent is in northern hardwood, oak.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines why half the forest area in four counties in northern Minnesota, USA, is unproductive. The author reviews the history of land use, concluding the biggest factor in the area's present condition is a series of wildfires between 1870 and 1920. These wiped out conifer seed sources and damaged reproduction and young growth across hundreds of thousands of acres. Although the wildfires were the most destructive event, logging, unwise drainage of swamps, and misdirected agriculture also contributed to the poor condition of the forest today. The author explores the possibilities for rehabilitating the affected area through methods such as fire protection, soil improvement, and reforestation. He also examines the potential for converting aspen forests to more valuable species. The book includes detailed soil surveys, maps of fire occurrences, and historical accounts of the logging industry in the region. Insights from this book will prove helpful to foresters, soil scientists, and policymakers concerned with sustainable land management practices.
