Selective Cutting
Most hardwoods are mature at 50-70cm diameter and could be harvested at this size. Selective
harvest leaves a sufficient number of mature trees to protect younger trees and provide seed for
future crops. Woodlots harvested with improvement and select harvesting principals will be left
in dramatically better condition when completed than a minimum legal bylaw cut. Selling logs by
size and grade (scaled) most often brings owners more money than by selling without classification
by the lot.
