On North Nova operations we have been doing this for well over a decade to protect advance regeneration and reduce pulpwood grade material coming out of the forest. We also assumed it had a biodiversity value.

A high biodiversity stump is made by cutting the trunk of a tree at a height of 2–4 metres. High biodiversity stumps increase the amount of standing decaying wood in forests, which benefits many species.
