- This video focuses on restoration of longleaf pine on Ichauway from different starting conditions. Kevin McIntyre and Brandon Rutledge review restoration on former agricultural fields, underplanting longleaf under slash pine, and removing encroaching hardwoods to establish longleaf dominance.
I could sit and listen to that first old man for hours. Great video all around.
One of the best years of my life was spent there!!
Not to be contrary but my dream would be to do all the tree eradication things to the pines (do away with 'em) and then plant nut bearing hardwoods. Now THAT would be an eco dream FOREST!! Yummy!
You would eradicate numerous ecosystems to satisfy your taste for nuts? Sounds like something a lunatic would do.
Yeah it would just put 1/3 of all the animals and plants that depend on them on the extinction list . Good plan
It would certainly be better than a pine-only forest, but even better still is a forest with all native tree species.
@@leedavis5907 Pines are allelopathic. They produce natural herbicides which prevent other plants from growing near them. That's why when I had two eastern white pines in my yard *nothing grew under them. The soil was bare under them.*
