Book Description
This innovative interdisciplinary study focuses on the history, science, and policy of tree planting and water conservation in South Africa. South Africa’s forestry sector has sat—often controversially—at the crossroads of policy and scientific debates regarding water conservation, economic development, and biodiversity protection. Bennett and Kruger show how debates about the hydrological impact of exotic tree planting in South Africa shaped the development of modern scientific ideas and state policies relating to timber plantations, water conservation, invasive species control, and biodiversity management within South Africa as well as elsewhere in the world. Forestry and Water Conservation in South Africa shows how scientific research on the impact of exotic and native vegetation led to the development of a comprehensive national policy for conserving water, producing timber, and protecting indigenous species from invasive alien plants. Policies and laws relating to forests and water began to change in the late 1980s and early 1990s as a result of political and administrative changes within South Africa. This book suggests that the country’s contemporary policies towards timber plantations, guided by the National Water Act of 1998, need to be reconsidered in light of the authors’ findings. Bennett and Kruger also call for more interdisciplinary research and greater emphasis on integrated policies and management plans for forestry, invasive alien plants, water conservation, and biodiversity preservation.

Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1885 edition. Excerpt: ... The foliage of trees at the edge of a forest is often surmounted by bare dead branches, rising like the horns of a stag from their crowns, whilst trees entirely isolated in exposed hedges, or avenues, frequently present a broken appearance, vulgarly called the " Witches broom." The following signs, on the contrary, are considered symptoms of defects or disease: --1. A flat or swelled appearance on one side of the stem is indicative of an eccentric heart, and consequently of irregular formation of the grain. Bark split in spiral threads denotes the same formation of grain throughout. 2. Bark dull and blotchy, especially if split or channelled, extending deeper than the periodic shedding necessary for the normal conditions of its existence; scales or thin plates showing a tendency in the wood to puff up; large red or white stains breaking the uniformity of the colour; all these indications denote an infiltration of water, or an effusion of sap into the interior. 3. The presence of fungus on the bark; an excessive quantity of lichen or vegetable parasites, generally denote internal decomposition more or less advanced. 4. Holes made by birds usually imply soft wood, and often indicate the presence of highly injurious insects. 5. The presence of eruptions; scarred branches; rotten knots partly grown over and called "bull's-eyes"; holes or cavities containing water on the trunk; the exuding of matter; dust proceeding from small holes between the roots; are all indications of internal decay. 6. Warts, woody protuberances; circular excerscences, whether having twigs growing on them or not; bulging of the bark in the direction of the grain; generally denote defects, decay, or splits inside. The same are to be feared when small...
