SALEM, Ore. Efforts to replant Oregon state forestlands scorched by the 2020 wildfires are being hampered by a short supply of new tree seedlings, the Oregon Department of Forestry said on Wednesday.
“Seedlings were already in short supply in Oregon before the fires,” said Kyle Abraham, Chief of ODF’s Private Forests Division. “Now, rough estimates are that somewhere between 80 and 140 million additional seedlings could be needed to reforest just the non-federal lands that burned in 2020.”
