I have found the two following books to be quite helpfull:

Tree Farm Business Management by James M. Vardaman, published by John 
Wiley & Sons, New York

Christmas Trees for Pleasure and Profit by Arthur G. Chapman and Robert 
D. Wray, published by Rutgers University Press, Newbrunswick, New Jersey. 

I purchased my copies from Ben Meadows Co, 1-800-241-6401 for orders

I have also contacted them through the WWW, I beleive the address was 
http://benmeadows.com.

I have used the above books to help clients in my consulting forestry 
practice in Northern Michigan
