SilviCast
SilviCast is a podcast devoted to silviculture: the science, practice, and art of forestry. We explore current topics in forest management, highlight innovative practices, and interview practitioners and researchers aiming to solve challenges facing today’s managers. The show is tailored for foresters and other land managers, whether it’s listening at the office or in the truck on the way to the field. SilviCast is hosted by Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources silviculturists Greg Edge and Brad Hutnik and produced by the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point’s Wisconsin Forestry Center.

S.3 Ep.7: The Chess Match
Wildlife habitat is the primary goal for many forest landowners, and in particular forest bird habitat. Silviculture treatments have great potential to provide quality habitat for birds if we know what to look for. Join us on this episode of SilviCast as we take a walk in the woods with Mike Demchik, Professor of Silviculture at the University of Wisconsin – Stevens Point, while we discuss how to recognize the bird habitat elements that are missing in a woods and better integrate those elements into our silvicultural treatments.
