Introduction to mixed forestry with continuous cover
Le 23 June 2023 - Biron (Erezée)
ATTENTION CHANGEMENT DE DATE !!
(23 juin et non le 26 juin)
Objectives
Continuous cover mixed silviculture (CCMS) is a silvicultural strategy whose aim is to produce quality timber while minimising investment and ensuring all the other functions of the forest. This type of silviculture is essentially based on the use of natural processes, which are supported by targeted actions. The aim is to maintain the continuity of the canopy (avoiding clear-cutting) and to make maximum use of natural regeneration (although planting is not ruled out).
La journée sera consacrée à la découverte de la SMCC et est destinée aux débutants. Au cours de la visite d’une propriété dans laquelle la SMCC prend de plus en plus d’ampleur, nous aborderons différentes notions (travaux ciblés dans la régénération, martelage en irrégulier, désignation d’arbres-objectifs, gestion de la lumière, diversification par plantation…). Plusieurs exercices pratiques sur ces différents sujets seront proposés.
