Christensen Forestry Services has over 35 years of experience monitoring and evaluating the results of silvicultural treatments for both conifer and hardwood species. Proper site preparation, matching planting stock and species to the site, and monitoring the planting operation are essential to establishing a vigorous, healthy forest. Other treatments including thinning, fertilization, pruning, vegetation control, animal damage control, and treatments to mitigate the effects of disease can help keep the forest productive and produce the types of forest products that the landower desires. These treatments can also enhance wildlife habitat and recreational opportunities.
