This tract is well-positioned for both short- & long-term returns: Stand ABD - 64 acres replanted in 2009 at a rate of 545 trees/acre, spray released in the fall of ‘09, & a report in 11/09 estimated 900 trees per acre due to natural seedlings being established within the stand. Stand E - 56 acres harvested in 2017 & allowed to naturally regenerate with loblolly pine, creating a diverse, young forest with loblolly pine, various hardwood species, blackberry, briar, etc. Stand C - 36 acres of natural regeneration, apparently harvested in 2005.
