2,900 board feet, or about 14 cords, per acre. 

 Forty-eight percent of the second-growth area, or 

 more than 3% million acres, is occupied by under- 

 sawlog-size stands, a typical view of which is shown 

 in figure 6. Although less than three-quarters of a 

 million acres, or 9 percent, of the second-growth 

 area was classified as reproduction, much of the 

 forest area in old growth and in older stands of 

 second growth has a good admixture or understory 

 of pine or hardwood reproduction. 



The density and distribution of seedlings in the 

 reproduction areas vary gready, but approximately 

 17 percent of that classified as slash pine reproduc- 

 tion and 7 percent of the longleaf pine reproduction 

 is well stocked with more than 900 well-distributed 

 seedlings per acre. An additional 21 percent of the 

 slash and 1 5 percent of the longleaf reproduction 

 area has 170 to 900 well-distributed seedlings per 

 acre. On approximately 1 1 percent of the repro- 

 duction area in slash and longleaf, the stand of
