Forest Service

No 334339, USDA Miscellaneous from United States Department of Agriculture

Abstract: Excerpts from the report: The program of forestry research presented herein outlines a balanced attack by the U.S. Department of Agriculture on the major forest resource problems facing the Nation. The program covers research in the management of timber, forest soil and water, range forage, wildlife and fish habitat, and forest recreation; research in protection of the forest from fire, insects, and disease; forest products and engineering research: and forest resource economics and marketing research. The long-range objectives of the research are related to the forest development programs that will be necessary to produce the wealth of renewable forest resources needed by the year 2000. This report outlines a carefully developed research program to be done in an initial 10-year period to provide a firm scientific underpinning and technical support for the rapid and efficient advancement of programs aimed at increased forest resource protection, management, and utilization.
