Description: Nonindustrial private forest-land owners can be motivated 1, by programs directed to their needs and objectives. Seven target audiences in Pennsylvania were defined and outlets for information programs identified for each target I audience. The primary objectives of each group and the benefits they expect from owning forest land were considered in the preparation of each group's program. This system is now being used by The Pennsylvania State University in its forest extension program.

Keywords: Forestry assistance, recreation, forest-land ownership, available timber, harvesting
