_{^{BLM WEED MANAGEMENT}}

The BLM manages over 3.5 million acres of forested land in Colorado.  Over 2.5 million acres are considered woodlands, dominated by pinyon, juniper, and oak.  The remaining forested acres consist of traditional commercial tree species such as ponderosa pine, lodgepole pine, and Douglas fir.  Some of the wood products harvested include saw timber, firewood, Christmas trees, posts and poles, and biomass.  Because Colorado forests tend to have relatively low productivity rates, the primary management focus for forested BLM Colorado public lands is to restore and sustain forest health, rather than produce commercial timber.
