Cut and come again forestry - reviving the ancient practice of
resprout silviculture to power local woodland-based economies.
Coppice Agroforestry is a richly illustrated, comprehensive guide
to resprout silviculture - managing trees and shrubs by coppicing,
pollarding, shredding, and pleaching - for a continuous supply of
small diameter polewood for products from firewood to fine
furniture. Contextualizing resprout silviculture historically,
ecologically, and economically, Coppice Agroforestry explores the
potential of this ancient practice for modern times. Coverage
includes: The cultural history of coppicing in Europe and North
America Tree and shrub anatomy, biology, and woodland ecology A
suite of woodland management systems Dozens of handcrafted wood
products on a continuum of value, offering a wide range of business
opportunities Case studies of diverse coppice-based enterprises
Assessing existing forests for coppice potential Designing new
resprout silviculture systems Tables highlighting diverse species
for various uses A vision of a modern resprout silviculture
renaissance. A decade in the making, encyclopedic in scope, and
written by the hand of a woodsman, Coppice Agroforestry is a deep
dive into this ancient practice, blending it with modern science,
systems thinking, and tools to land it firmly into the 21st
century. Whether you have a few trees or an entire forest, Coppice
Agroforestry is the must-have practical guide for homesteaders,
farmers, foresters, land managers, and educators who ally
themselves with the remarkable resilience of woody plants.
