Content
This folder, entitled A295 Pureora Selective Felling Trials, (established 1961), has been used as a compendium of some 12 items ranging from control or work plans to project records and published and unpublished reports. A major theme is the growth of tawa regeneration (seedling and coppice). There are also file notes and correspondence with Auckland Conservancy. Most of these reports and published papers will also be held elsewhere at NZFRI. File contains a large amount of numerical data from the series of investigations.
