Abstract
In the state of Georgia, family forest landowners own about fifty-five percent of the forest land. This study assesses the satisfaction and needs of private forest landowners by analyzing open-ended survey questions of a state-wide survey. The comments suggest that while many forest landowners are content with forest management services in the state, access to and quality of both public and private forest-management services is in decline, especially for those with smaller forest properties. We assess the comments in the context of the recent development related to budget cuts for publically funded forest-management services, fluctuations in roundwood demand, and decline of entrepreneurship in the Georgia forestry sector and offer recommendations for improvement.
