among southern pines are a national resource of great value. (See chapter 2). 

 They should be used, rather than destroyed during conversion of lands to other 

 uses. The extent to which hardwoods will occupy land economically better 

 suited to growing southern pines or food and forage will largely depend on the 

 action of private non-industrial forest land owners (sect. 2-9). Their actions will 

 be determined by personal preferences and economic needs, and by needs and 

 demands of the Nation for various types of recreational forests, wildlife habitat, 

 watersheds, energy, food, wood and fiber, and employment. 



It therefore seems reasonable to continue strong research efforts with the 

 objective of developing scientifically derived alternatives for establishing fores- 

 try policy, practicing forestry, and utilizing the wood resource of the South. 

 Universities, industry, and State and Federal Government should all participate 

 in this research.
