The second issue of Skógræktarritið has now been published and is in circulation to subscribers. The Journal is the only journal in Iceland specifically dedicated to forestry and is therefore the main forum for writing for Icelandic foresters and other forestry enthusiasts. The content of the Journal is therefore very diverse.
The second issue contains articles on the Tree of the Year 2022, the first tree in a very long time to reach 30 m in Iceland, about shelterbeds and their effects on microclimate and plant growth, about forestry in “hopeless” areas, about the legal framework for forestry in terms of livestock, about a forestry field trip to Morocco, about the general meeting of the Icelandic Forestry Association and a think piece one the interaction between trees and people, as well as an overview of the main forestry statistics for 2021 and memorials.
