<![CDATA[Master Tree Farmer - 2004]]> http://mastertreefarmer.org en-us &#169;2006 Matt Howell Matt Howell Master Tree Farmer is a satellite broadcast based workshop for southern landowners and persons considering land ownership who are interested in managing their land. The Master Tree Farmer Program is an intensive educational program designed to introduce landowners to many of the topics associated with forest management. The programs are not designed to make landowners into foresters but to acquaint landowners with forestry terms and concepts so they can effectively converse with foresters about the management of their property. We have documented that landowners are more willing to see forestry practiced on their land when they understand why things are done.

The Master Tree Farmer courses are the only satellite broadcasts of their kind for forest landowners throughout the South. Each participating state land grant university has a coordinator making arrangements for their programs. Clemson University serves as the host for the programs. Forestry professionals from universities, private and public organizations participate as instructors and presenters. Broadcasts are live from Clemson to viewing locations around the south.

Objectives


  1. Learn how to practice substantial forestry.

  2. Determine options available to manage their land and meet their objectives.

  3. Understand stewardship considerations for land management.

  4. Learn about best management practices for protecting the environment.

  5. Become acquainted with services and assistance available for managing forest land.
