Forestland

Chart of forestland NRI data

The acres of forestland in Kentucky have consistently increased from 1982 to 1997. In 1982 there were about 10.44 million acres of forestland. In 1997, the acreage increased to 10.67 million acres. Most of the increase in forestland acreage can be attributed to pastures reverting to woodland and to tree plantings.
