Silviculture
Brinkman & Associates' core service for more than 30 years has been hands-on silviculture carried out by skilled workers at remote sites across Canada and around the world. Although treeplanting remains the company's primary activity, Brinkman silviculture crews also carry out thousands of hectares of brushing, spacing, and surveys each year, as well as girdling, fire control, slash burning and precommercial thinning.
Brinkman & Associates Reforestation recognizes all silviculture activities as both
-
establishing and managing forest stands to maximize growth and performance for both timber and non-timber values; and
-
restoring forest ecosystem dynamics to ensure long term ecological, social and economic sustainability.
Brinkman has a 35 year history of practical innovation in sustainable forest ecosystem restoration and management, including developing practical tools, techniques, operational systems, treatments and policies, such as the
L'il Beaver Power Girdler, and Results Based Reforestation.
Today, Brinkman divisions work across Canada from British Columbia to Ontario, as well as
Central America. Each Brinkman division provides a full suite of services to a wide range of private forest land managers, crown land licensees, and government clients.
