    It’s annoying me that I know nothing of the story behind this. Perhaps it meets some every-other-tree rule in a way that is easily verifiable with one flyover, or even Google Maps.

      Another replyer alluded to this but if every plant can spread its seeds X feet then by cutting like this you increase the total surface area the plants are able to spread to. Increasing the natural regrowth rate.

      Every other square mile is cleared for logging as some sort of forestry preservation/logging compromise. The spaces logged are clear cut.
