Description

The EFM network is one of the longest running scientific projects in Switzerland and has been collecting growth and yield data since the late 1880’s. As of 2021, 28 plots had been monitored for at least 100 years and 81 for at least 75 years. The network is used to examine silvicultural treatments across a range of species, climate and edaphic conditions. There are currently 465 plots covering a total area of 148 hectares. Over the > 130-year history of the project, at least another 1000 plots were monitored and then deactivated after they reached their experimental goal (e.g. end of the rotation). The data from all 1480 plots are available for analyses.
