	Gifford Pinchot - A primer of forestry
		The second part (Practical Forestry) deals with the practice of forestry, with work in the woods, and with the relation of the forest to the weather and the streams, and concludes with a short account of forestry at home and abroad.
		In countries where forestry is well developed it is usually to plant young trees of tolerant species under older intolerant trees, to make a acre for the soil and to prevent the growth of grass and weeds.
		Forestry as a science is of comparatively recent origin, although a work in which all the european trees are described was one of the earliest printed books.

	Forestry Commission - History of the Forestry Commission
		The Forestry Commission's origins are in the First World War, and difficulties Britain had meeting wartime demands on timber.
		But forestry was repeatedly to clash with agriculture interests as the need to produce home grown food increased, and planting was gradually moved out to land which was unsuitable for other crops.
		The private forestry sector was buoyant too: by 1969 it was carrying out 40 per cent of total planting, and close to one million acres had been dedicated.

		The plaintiff said with this information, it petitioned the Forestry Commission to seek clarification as to why the companies he named as Maxwell Owusu Sawmill, Kumih Sawmill, Africana Sawmill and Baba Gariba Timbers were operating in the supposed convalescence forest, while he was footing the land rent.
		The company, however, contended that since the Forestry Commission had the manpower and personnel well equipped and know where such unencumbered off-reserved areas were, and also the fact that it was their ill-planned action that brought about its losses, it was the duty of the Commission to find it a replacement.
		The plaintiff said it was its right that the Forestry Commission be held responsible and duty bound to replace the forest, which was taken away from the company in 1994.

		Wetlands also are important to water quality because many of them occupy riparian areas along streams, rivers and estuaries and provide buffer areas which retard flow, allowing deposition of sediment and filtration and/or decomposition of other potential pollutants (nutrients, pesticides, etc.) before they reach environmentally sensitive waters.
		Between the 1950s and the early 1980s in the Coastal Plain, forestry (a partially supporting use) was responsible for an estimated 38-53% of wetlands conversions, agriculture (nonsupporting) was responsible for an estimated 42-52%, and urban development (nonsupporting) was responsible for 2-10%.
		In quantitative terms, North Carolina is home to 120 species of mammals, 200 species of resident and migrating breeding birds, 70 species of reptiles, 80 species of amphibians, 245 species of freshwater fish, and a large number of saltwater fish and invertebrate species.
