註釋The most widely used method of harvesting upland black spruce is clear-cutting, which presents a number of problems related to forest regeneration in the cut areas. To investigate harvest alternatives that could mitigate this regeneration problem, a government/industry co-operative project examined the effectiveness of alternate strip cutting on shallow-soil upland sites in Ontario. Alternate strip cutting results in higher harvesting costs than conventional clear-cutting, but savings can be realised when regenerating the next stand. This technical note analyses the additional harvesting costs of strip cutting compared with clear-cutting, as well as the renewal savings associated with alternate strip cutting. It also discusses the management implications of using the alternative harvest method.
