considered: Softwood species (sitka spruce‚lodgepole pine and larch) are frequently planted since they have relatively high yields and so generate more timber. Management of timber production is more considerable and alternative systems to clear-felling (large areas of woodland cut down at the same time) are used. Coppicing (management based on regeneration by regrowth from the cut stumps) can be used for some hardwood species‚ such as willow‚ hazel and ash‚ and causes least disruption on the
