I live in a state where there is a significant amount of logging done. I have learned how it works.
The logging companies own a great amount of land— of course they can only log where they own or lease the land.
They cut their own land to nothing in cycles. After they have harvested the trees, they plant new ones ( in designed manner ) and then move on to the next patch. For optimal results, they have to have enough land under contract to stay busy until the earlier harvested/planted lot is again ready.
At least that’s how it works here. This is for fast growing trees like pine.
Loggers are like beavers. They cut down all the trees they can in an area and move on and then say the environmentalists shut them down.
Actually, no.
