HOW TO CONTROL UNDESIRABLE HARDWOODS Studies at the Santee and Bigwoods Experimental Forests and elsewhere show that undesirable low- value hardwoods encroaching on loblolly pine sites can be controlled by a variety of methods varying widely in effectiveness and cost. The importance of this work is in- dicated by the fact that the ten million acres of loblolly pine in the Carolina and Virginia Coastal Plain is one of the most productive forest types. Hardwoods—in many cases of less desirable and slower growing species—are encroaching1.
