The Impact of COVID-19 on management of non-industrial private forests in the Southeastern United States

This paper explores the potential effects of COVID-19 on forest management decisions undertaken by non-industrial private forest landowners (NIPFL) in the southeastern United States. We find 39% of NIPFL would likely alter their forest management practices as a result of COVID-19. Our results highli...
