Most states provide public technical assistance to help private landowners manage their forests. This article summarizes the results of a case study evaluating the public forestry assistance program in Georgia. Forest harvesting practices made by private landowners who received public forestry assistance were compared with those who did not receive any assistance when making a timber sale and harvest. Assisted landowners generally had greater returns from harvests, which could be imputed to yield large private, social, and program benefit cost ratios.
