Abstract

Bur oak (Quercus macrocarpa) is common across Iowa. In 2012, bur oak ranked second among all tree species as measured in volume of sawtimber on forest land. Bur oak provides substantial value for wood products and is an important source of wildlife habitat and mast (acorns) to many game and non-game species.
