Examples

In 16th-century Germany, landowners also developed silviculture to deal with the problem of deforestation. Source: Internet

The development of this soil enabled agriculture and silviculture to be conducted in the previously hostile environment. Source: Internet

This is because on older and less fertile soils trees grow too slowly for silviculture to be economic, whilst in areas with a strong dry season there is always a risk of forest fires destroying a tree crop before it matures. Source: Internet
