  • Chapter
Clonal Forestry II

Abstract

Tasman Forestry Limited (TFL) manages 200000 hectares of Pinus radiata (D.Don) forests in New Zealand primarily for clearwood production, which necessitates intensive pruning to 6.0 m of the final crop stems. Pulpwood and framing timber come from intermediate thinnings and unpruned top logs.
