The Status of Container Planting Programs in Canada - Alberta

Reforestation programs in Alberta have relied heavily upon containerized seedlings in recent years. Current annual production is about 15 million Spencer-Lemaire seed-lings. While this reliance on containerized seedlings will continue, the development of a large bare-root nursery capacity is expected to stabilize the demand for containerized seed-lings at approximately 22 million per year by 1986. However,increases in harvesting and concomitant reforestation activities may dictate increases in the production of all types of planting stock.
