The cogongrass was sprayed May 20th -21st at Baldwin. We are soliciting bids on the signage and working on other projects that will enhance the demonstration forest.
Herbaceous weed control was applied on the planting at Geneva. We originally contracted a banded application but the application was delayed to allow the new trees to begin root growth. In the interim, the competing vegetation made it difficult for the applicator to follow the rows. Timberland Silvicultural Services was able to treat 36 acres of ground application and then Crop Production Services completed the remaining 194 acres of aerial broadcast. Jones Vegetation Management completed their portion of the understory mulching in May. Bach and Devos will finish in early June. We are 200 acres short of the 1,400 acre goal. If the weather and ground conditions permit, we will try to complete the remaining acres during the summer months.
Chesnut Forestry has been working at Choccolocco retreating kudzu spots from last fall.
