From the text ... 'But first, before going into the future, I want to talk a little bit about the present and the past and in Florida. Over the last 10 years, Florida has burned, on average, about two million acres a year. That includes silviculture, agriculture, and land clearing. We do administer the land clearing and agriculture as well. Silviculture is a category that includes all ecological burning, all forestry activities, and all wildland fuel-type burning across the state.' © 2010, Tall Timbers Research, Inc.
