The regenerating land base of Crown forest lands harvested under even-aged forest management systems since 1975 was about 14 million ha in 1995. Most harvested areas are regenerating successfully. Natural regeneration plays a much bigger role in Canadian forestry than planting or seeding. The area of forest land that remains understocked after harvesting is shrinking. The data presented were provided through the REGEN component of the National Forestry Database Program by the provincial and territorial agencies responsible for the management of forest resources in their jurisdictions. Key words: forest inventory, forest regeneration, Canadian forests
