Study five tree species important to forestry in your area and give the following information about each:
- a. common and scientific name
- b. range of tree
- c. height and diameter of tree at maturity
- d. economic importance of tree
- e. important pests (insects, disease, etc.) of the tree
- f. habitat of tree, forest zone, and elevation
- g. common age of rotation (harvesting) for various uses
4
What methods are used to insure reforestation of a harvest area?
The answers in your area may vary. In British Columbia there is a combination of private and government (Crown) forest land.
5
On a map of your country, draw the forest areas and indicate the types of forest in each area.
6
Write a short report (250 words or more) on the importance of the forests in your country. Include such topics as the importance of wood for timber, paper (pulp), and firewood; wildlife habitat; livestock grazing; good water quality; and recreation for people.
7
Tour one of the following, or write a report with diagrams about operations.
7a
Sawmill
7b

8
Do a forest survey in a typical forest for your area. Using a prism, mark all trees large enough to be counted “in”, and record the following data for each “in” tree, and record the basal area by species for the whole plot:
8a
Common and scientific name
8b
DBH
8c
Height
8d
Age (determined by increment borer)
9
Participate in a reforestation project
You are going to need to plant some trees. Some young people make summer jobs out of tree planting. If you just want to do some planting to earn the honor, check with State or Provincial Parks for volunteer reforestation opportunities. You might also try Duck Unlimited or similar non-profit entities that manage conservation land.
