Container Seedling Production in British Columbia

The styroblock system was developed cooperatively by the Canadian Forestry Service, British Columbia Ministry of Forests, and the University of British Columbia, after experimentation and testing of other systems. Approximately 185 million container seedlings have been grown in British Columbia since 1970. Plans call for an increase in government container production to 50 million seedlings annually by 1985. Private production will increase from 20 million seedlings in 1981 to 45 million seedlings annually in 1985.
