The increased utilization of northern spruce-balsam stands has left behind very unsatisfactory pictures of regeneration after conventional cutting methods. Only in exceptional cases the desired species have regenerated without any additional organized help from man, thus pointing to the possibility of introduction or improvement of silvicultural systems.The Cariboo section is endeavoring to establish a Forest Practice Code for this area to be adopted generally, and particularly by operators concerned with perpetual yield management.
