What does coppid mean?

"Coppid" refers to a type of tree management practice known as coppicing, where trees are cut back to ground level to promote new growth. This method encourages the production of multiple stems from the base, allowing for sustainable harvesting of wood. Coppicing is often used for species like willow and hazel, and it benefits biodiversity by creating varied habitats. The term can also be found in historical contexts related to land management and forestry.
