La tala es una parte esencial de la economía de Oregón y juega un papel en la forma en que se gestionan muchos bosques

For every tree harvested in Oregon landowners typically plant up to four more

Logging is an essential part of Oregon’s economy, and plays a role in the way many forests are managed – whether they are owned by federal, state or local governments; small businesses or large corporations; or tribes, families and individuals.

There are many players in the process of planning and executing a timber harvest. A landowner owns the timber. They may hire a forest manager to manage their tree farm and plan each timber harvest, including ensuring the careful siting of access roads and protections for wildlife and fish habitat. Forest managers or landowners then coordinate the hiring of logging and trucking crews, and contact mills that may be interested in purchasing the logs. All these parties work together to ensure a safe and successful harvest.
