Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Forest Insect and Disease Situation, Lake States, 1960 Insects and diseases play an important part in the reduction of our vast forest resource. Each year they cause large losses in timber growth and result in tree mortality. But that is not all: These agents attack the forest from seed to finished product. Stocking levels are lowered, growth is retarded, and trees are deformed, thus reducing both quality and quantity of forest products. The protection of our forests against these destructive agents is the responsibility of everyone concerned with the national economy. This report summarizes the information collected by many agencies and individuals on the forest insect and disease situation in the lake States during 1960. The most important aspects are presented briefly in the next few pages. For more detailed discussion see sections on The More Important Forest Insects (or Diseases).
