afternoon. I am looking for information as to what people are using out
there to valuate shelterbelts. At the City of <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Saskatoon</st1:place></st1:City>, we use the trunk formula method
for individual trees, but do not have a formula we are comfortable with for
shelterbelts. Please contact me at <a href="mailto:geoff.mcleod@saskatoon.ca">geoff.mcleod@saskatoon.ca</a>
with any information or leads you may have.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
