Following Thinning- Assessing damage to Silvopasture Trees

Dear Silvopasture Sleuths,

One of our little SP demo/trial/research here continues to move forward.  We have had the degraded hardwood stand thinned, understory regen/regrowth controlled and seeding underway.

We want to conduct a 100% inventory of the remaining trees and as part of that assess the damage some incurred during the thinning and brush burning process.  Does anyone have protocol/criteria that might help with this, i.e. assessing residual stand damage?

Thank you for your help,

Adam Downing
