Abstract:
More than two-thirds of North Carolina is covered by forests, but the state could face a severe timber shortage in less than twenty-five years because of a lack of forest maintenance. There are issues with small landowners, who own almost eight-percent of the state’s commercial timberland. Quality trees are cut for sale but are not replanted after harvesting, leading to under stocked, deteriorating timberland.

Abstract:
In 1968, more forested lands were privately owned in the state than anywhere else in the nation. Timber and forestry products values placed the state third in the nation, only behind Oregon and Washington. Having a cooperative relationship with the 225,600 private owners who possessed 77 percent of the state's forests held large-scale implications for maintaining this significant portion of the state's economy.
