McIntire Stennis Program

McIntire Stennis Cooperative Forestry Research program helps to create and maintain a highly qualified cadre of forest scientists through their direct involvement in the research projects as part of their graduate education.  It provides knowledge essential to the efficient and effective use of the nation's forest resources.

Council on McIntire-Stennis Forestry Research

The council coordinates ESF's research through the federal McIntire-Stennis Cooperative Forestry Research program, which provides knowledge essential to the efficient and effective use of the nation's forest resources. Timber production, forest land management, wood utilization, and the associated development of new products and distribution systems are the key elements of forestry research. This research deals with other products of the forest, including wildlife, recreation, water, range and environmental quality, whose production, management and distribution are an inextricable part of the long-term productivity and profitability of the integrated system of forest resources.

In addition, McIntire-Stennis research has the objective of helping to create and maintain a highly qualified cadre of forest scientists through their direct involvement in the research projects as part of their graduate education. These young men and women, educated in the sciences fundamental to forestry, will ultimately help to maintain the security and well-being of this country through service in private industry, in various levels of govern-ment, and in academic institutions as managers and scientists.
