Show PART IV RESOURCE AVAILABILITY Planned Federal irrigation project will provide dependable water supply for these dry croplands for increased pro- duction of diversified crops. Natural and seeded range and forest and alpine lands are used for grazing. Approximately 54.6 million acres of the 60.4 million acres pres- ently used are suitable and available for future use. The present produc- tion of nearly 6 million AUM's can be increased to more than 9 million using only the suitable lands. Timber For commercial timber production, 9.4 million acres are suitable and available; an additional 900,000 acres of commercial forest land have been reserved from production. The annual sustained yield potential of timber products is 340 million cubic feet out of the total growing stock of 14.5 tial, the cubit feet. To meet national timber demands and reach its poten- tial., the harvest can be increased by a vigorous marketing and research program, utilization studies, and intensive timber management. The devel- opment of the timlDer resources must ^ geared to multiple-use management with fun consideration for protection from wildfire and insect-disease attacks. |
