AGN 143 Forestry Exam 3
Clear-cutting is an even-aged silvicultural method. True or False - correct
answer ✔True


Clear Cutting is an even aged silvicultural method


Say you have an even-aged oak/hickory stand that is 85 years old. At this
age, the stand is 15 years from the end of the rotation (harvest time). This
stand is fully stocked at this stage, but not overstocked. This stand has had
intermediate management (crop tree management) in the past and has
approximately 75 total crop trees per acre. You have decided to conduct
either a seed tree harvest system or a shelterwood harvest system.


At this stage in stand development, what would probably be the most
appropriate thinning method (intermediate treatment) to use, should you
choose to thin at this stage?


*Thinning from below
*Crop tree release
*Geometric thinning
*Clear-cutting - correct answer ✔*Thinning from Below


Say you have an even-aged oak/hickory stand that is 85 years old. At this
age, the stand is 15 years from the end of the rotation (harvest time). This
stand is fully stocked at this stage, but not overstocked. This stand has had
intermediate management (crop tree management) in the past and has
approximately 75 total crop trees per acre. You have decided to conduct
either a seed tree harvest system or a shelterwood harvest system.

, Since you are trying to develop either a seed tree system or shelterwood
system, what harvesting activity might be appropriate at this stage?


*Establishment cut
*Preparatory cut
*Removal cut
*Clear-cut - correct answer ✔*Established Cut


Say you have an even-aged oak/hickory stand that is 85 years old. At this
age, the stand is 15 years from the end of the rotation (harvest time). This
stand is fully stocked at this stage, but not overstocked. This stand has had
intermediate management (crop tree management) in the past and has
approximately 75 total crop trees per acre. You have decided to conduct
either a seed tree harvest system or a shelterwood harvest system.


Whether you are conducting a seed tree system or a shelterwood system,
what would you want to be the maximum number of years from the first cutting
(harvesting) stage to the last?


10 years
20 years
30 years
40 years - correct answer ✔20 Years


Under a shelterwood system, how much residual basal area (of retained
trees) would you leave on site after the establishment cut?
*5-15 ft2/ac
*10-30 ft2/ac
*30-50 ft2/ac
