28Forest Stewardship Program
Oregon’s Forest Management Planning System recognizes that forest
management planning is a journey – Pathways to Stewardship -- involving several
distinct steps. A landowner’s initial interest may be related to a specific project or
action that is pressing on their property – such as reducing hazardous wildfire
fuels or combating an invasive weed. Landowner assistance organizations and
agencies usually first cross paths through outreach efforts defined around mutual
interests or resource concerns. Landowners who are just beginning the
management planning process begin a more formal journey by taking
the
Woodland Discovery
step. Woodland Discovery consists of gathering basic
property information and solidifying management goals. The remaining steps for
completing your forest management plan include organizing the planning
elements into specific management planning modules: soil and water, forest
vegetation, fish and wildlife, access and protection, scenery and enjoyment and
tax and business. Every step completed along the way results in the identification
of specific actions that a landowner can take to improve conditions of the
forestland or otherwise meet goals in owning forestland. Completion of a forest
management plan opens up formal types of engagement such as forest
certification and the enrollment of lands into specialized conservation programs
that define a long-term commitment to sustainable forestry.
Healthy Forests Reserve Program (HFRP)
The goal is to restore and enhance ecosystems and habitat for threatened and
endangered species while promoting sustainable timber harvests on working
forest lands.

The Oregon Department of Agriculture (ODA) is responsible for developing plans
to prevent and control water pollution from agricultural activities and soil erosion
on rural lands. ODA’s Natural Resources Program aims to conserve, protect, and
develop natural resources on public and private lands in order to ensure that
agriculture will continue to be productive and economically viable in Oregon.
Natural Resources Programs work to do the following:
Address water quality and natural resource conservation on agricultural
lands
Protect Oregon’s environment and public health by ensuring the proper
and legal sale, use, and distribution of pesticide products
Assist local soil and water conservation districts as they help landowners
properly manage Oregon’s natural resources
.
