Forest and Shelterbelt Planting in the United States During 1953

Forest and shelterbelt planting during the fiscal year 1953 (July 1, 1952, through June 30, 1953), as reported by State Foresters and other agencies, amounted to 715,548 acres. This figure is remarkable for two reasons—first because it is a new record, and second, because it represents the highest increase for one year. It is almost 193,000 acres-37 percent—greater than the acreage planted in 1952, previously the record year.
