Use of the Inventory-Monitoring System for Shortleaf and Eastern White Pine Cone and Seed Crops at the Beech Creek Seed Orchard

Cone and seed crops of eastern white pine (Pinus strobus L.) and shortleaf pine (P. echinata Mill.) seed orchard trees were monitored with an inventory-monitoring system. Survival curves for the crops were developed showing the cone efficiency and when losses were occurring in the orchard trees. Cones of one species were analyzed. Results of this study allow the seed orchard manager to evaluate orchard productivity and to develop more cost-effective pest management programs. Tree Planters' Notes 39(4):23-29; 1988.
