Abstract
Three new computer programs have been developed by a forestry Extension agent and a volunteer to help small woodland owners and foresters make better forest management decisions. Two of the programs were designed to perform the calculations necessary to estimate volume and growth of timber stands. A third program is designed to perform economic analysis of forestry investments. The programs have been well received by the clientele. Anecdotal evidence has shown that using the software has led to improved decision making capacity for small woodland owners.
