Abstract
Rapid advance in silviculture depends on the skill developed by foresters in dealing with the human rather than the physical obstacles to forestry. Many of the reasons offered against silvicultural logging are, the author believes, unrealistic and untested assumptions. Leaving silvicultural progress to a slow and impersonal "economic evolution" is classed by him as naive and out-of-date economics. He proposes, instead, direct dealing with forest owners to remedy destructive exploitation, partly through strengthening of all educational and research agencies, partly through organized control of exploitation, similar to proposed control of production.
