This fact sheet provides an overview of a study on the management implications of pre-commercial thinning in balsam fir. While the effects of pre-commercial thinning on stand growth and quality are well known, a New Brunswick study sheds light on the outstanding question of the impact on regeneration in the next rotation. The results of the study help assess the sustainability of the practice.
