Members

All work done by Camcore is a collaborative effort involving member companies and the NC State University staff. Some projects are program-wide, while others may be more regional in nature, involving several members in one or more countries. Members participate in projects applicable to them based on species, products produced, or land type and climate. Camcore staff work primarily in Raleigh, North Carolina, but travel frequently to member companies. We provide a variety of services, including:

- Distribution of research quantities of seeds from various tree populations for field trial establishment, testing, breeding and conservation
- Distribution of improved seed and hybrid crosses produced through cooperative projects
- Trial design, data analysis and interpretation
- Development of tree breeding programs and conservation strategies

- Species-to-site matching for plantation forestry
- Annual technical visits
