Methods are almost as variable as the soils of the region, which as remnants of ancient seas, volcanos and more recent glaciers. Terrain, soil profile, drainage, aspect and climate are some of the basic factors contributing to the diversity of sites and management regimes practices in the region. Herbicides are an important part of successful conifer management regimes. Approximately 70M forested acres are treated annually in MN, WI and the Upper Peninsula of MI.
