Forest Health in Oregon: State of the State 2012
March 1. 2012  -- LaSells Stewart Center - Oregon State University, Corvallis
Forest Health in Oregon: State of the State 2012 is a one-day conference and continuing education event designed to synthesize the current forest health conditions of Oregon forests by focusing on mortality agents and other factors that negatively impact forest trees.
The conference is for those interested in Oregon forests, particularly foresters, forest managers, environmentalists, resource professionals, and woodland owners. Topics include Forest Insect Pests, Forest Tree Diseases, Hardwoods, Vertebrate Damage, Non-Native Invasive Forest Pests and Weeds, and Fire.
The program is designed to give participants access to scientists during extended panel question periods. At lunch, we will have themed tables where forest health specialists and scientists will be represented so participants can engage in discussions on their preferred topics in a relaxed setting.
Cost:   $85
