Forest Management

The Forest Management program educates, empowers, and facilitates forest management activities on Tennessee’s private and public forest lands. Those activities focus on forest health, water quality protection, urban forest management, rural forest management, reforestation, and forest inventory and analysis. The foundation for Forest Management in Tennessee is the Forest Inventory and Analysis Program, which provides the data needed to understand how Tennessee’s forests are growing and being managed. By helping Tennessee’s forests remain healthy and sustainable, the forest products industry will remain strong, recreation and enjoyment of our forests will be supported, clean water will be protected, and wildlife will thrive.
