Forest Tree Seedling
Mississippi is blessed with
diverse and abundant natural resources. From the Gulf Coast Flatwoods to
the Upper Coastal Plains, forest resources abound in Mississippi. Forest
resources represent the state’s largest single land use, covering more than
19.7 million acres. Sixty-four percent of the state’s total land area is
forestland.
Every citizen of the state
is affected in some capacity by our forest resource. Annually, forestry
ranks among the top two agricultural products produced in the state. In
addition, Mississippi’s forests provide other benefits such as habitat for
both game and non-game wildlife species, soil protection, water quality
enhancement and vast recreational and education opportunities.
