In this video, we explain the second treatment technique utilized on the Hardwood Ecosystem Experiment, even-aged management. This technique aims to create areas where all of the trees are the same age. Watch to learn how this is accomplished.
The 100 year study, Hardwood Ecosystem Experiment (HEE), brings pertinent forest management data to many in Indiana. HEE Extension publications continue to share topics including: Wildlife Responses to Timber Harvesting, Sustaining our Oak-Hickory Forests, Forest Birds and more.
To learn more about this 100 year forest management plan and see its impacts, check out the Hardwood Ecosystem Experiment (HEE) website.
