In 2019, the Forest Productivity Cooperative (FPC) celebrated its 50th anniversary and highlighted some of the pivotal findings in the southeastern United States from the past 50 years derived from our large, regional experiments as mentioned in this paper.Abstract:
\n In 2019, the Forest Productivity Cooperative (FPC) celebrated its 50th anniversary. The mission of the FPC is and has been creating innovative solutions to enhance forest productivity and value through the sustainable management of site resources. This industry-government-university partnership has generated seminal research with sweeping implications for increasing productivity throughout the southeastern United States and Latin America. To commemorate this semicentennial, we highlighted some of the pivotal findings in the southeastern United States from the past 50 years derived from our large, regional experiments: regionwide trials.read more

Perspectives: Thirty years of triad forestry, a critical clarification of theory and recommendations for implementation and testing
TL;DR: The triad is an auspicious landscape approach, but to date there is very little empirical evidence supporting triad over alternatives, thus experimental and observation studies are needed to compare the efficacy of the triad approach over other forest landscape management schemes as discussed by the authors .

NPK fertilizer use in loblolly pine plantations: Who are we really feeding?
TL;DR: In this article , the authors explore how the most commonly commercially applied macronutrients, N, P, and K, affect the relationship between loblolly pine and ectomycorrhizal fungal communities, and propose future directions to investigate, preserve, and manipulate these interactions in pine plantations to optimize productivity.

Leaf Area and Above- and Belowground Growth Responses of Loblolly Pine to Nutrient and Water Additions
TL;DR: A 2 x 2 nutrient and water factorial experiment with four replications was installed in an 8-yr-old stand of Ioblolly pine growing on an infertile, excessively drained sandy site in Scotland County, North Carolina, and observed an increase in stem volume growth efficiency.
