Description

Successful forest management is a result of carefully planning and analyzing the existing forest resources to develop long and short term goals that will accomplish client objectives. Forest Management Plans are prepared by our staff of experienced professional foresters. A management plan generally includes an inventory of the existing resources, maps of the various timber stands, soil and site information, estimated cost and revenues, timber stand descriptions and management recommendations for a specific time period. This planning is aimed at meeting client goals through sound forest management while integrating and protecting soil, water, wildlife and timber resources. Computer-based growth and yield models are used to analyze the economic maturity of the various timber stands, and develop harvest schedules that are best suited for our clients. An important part of Southern Resource Service’s management strategy is maximizing timber and non-timber income. The success of a forest management program is measured at the time the timber is sold. A well managed forest will produce higher quality timber which results in higher prices when sold. Timber sale timing is extremely important, and requires an up to date knowledge of timber markets and trends. We continually monitor these factors to help achieve successful timber sales. In most situations, our marketing approach includes accurately estimating the volume and value of the timber to be sold, advertising the timber through competitive bids, selling under a firm timber deed or contract designed to protect our clients land and remaining timber, and supervising harvesting operations. Harvesting operations are required to be in compliance with state “Best Management Practices”.
