Detailed explanation-1: -B Growth of Uneven-Aged Forests. Uneven-aged stands are sometimes referred to as all-aged stands, but generally are considered those containing more than two or three distinct age classes or age cohorts. Management of these stands is often associated with the maintenance of the targeted diameter distribution.
Detailed explanation-2: -The selection silvicultural system is the most traditional approach to uneven-aged management. With the selection system, the forest owner attempts to maintain a range of desired tree sizes, species, and ages by harvesting individual trees (individual selection) or small groups of trees (group selection).
Detailed explanation-3: -Forest regeneration includes practices such as changes in tree plant density through human-assisted natural regeneration, enrichment planting, reduced grazing of forested savannas, and changes in tree provenances/genetics or tree species.
