Sustainable forest management supports ecosystems and maintains the health and diversity of forests. Removing the coarse woody debris (logs and cut branches) left after a timber harvest uncovers the ground and allows sunlight to reach in, which enhances new seedling growth and increases plant biodiversity.
Removing the leftover wood debris reduces the risk of beetle invasions, which can threaten the health of the surrounding forests and cause significant economic losses, as well as impact forest management and wood supply.
Key Benefits of After Harvest Cleanup
Removing the coarse woody debris (logs and cut branches) left after a timber harvest decreases the chance of beetle invasions caused by leaving the coarse debris behind and increases new seedling growth and density.
Our team is committed to removing all large debris, mulching discarded treetops and branches, smoothing ruts, reducing the possibility of erosion, and prepping the area for new seedlings.
This process later enables tree planters to access the area safely and efficiently.
- Safely removes woody debris
- Reduces the risk of Beetle invacion
- Protects the surrounding forests
- Increases new seedling growth
- Increases plant biodiversity
