LDAF grows seedlings that are suitable for reforestation purposes, wetlands mitigation, wetlands enhancement and wildlife habitat enhancement/establishment. These are usually tree seedlings; however, we do grow some native shrubs and native trees that produce nuts or fruit, such as native sweet pecan and persimmon.

The Advanced Generation seedlings represent our Second Generation seedlings. They include superior trees that perform at least as good or better than our second generation selections and are therefore maintained on our seed orchards. These seedlings are available in loblolly pine and slash pine. The loblolly seedlings average about 34(+)% and the slash seedlings average about 48(+)% increase in growth rates over wild seedlings.

That depends on a number of things. How productive is your site? How much money can you invest? How soon do you want to get a return on your investment? The best answer would be to get a forester on your site and have him or her tell you your best options after he has inspected your land.

LDAF has three seedling nurseries located across the state, which grows tree seedlings for sale to Louisiana landowners.
