No, I am referring to the techniques. Daisugi is a loan word used to describe a technique the same way Bonsai is. They are the English terms.
The Japanese equivalent of coppicing is coppicing because we are speaking English and we already have a word to describe the technique.
Also to correct your older post no it’s not “pollarding with the discovery of a particular tree that's really really good at it.” Daisugi uses Bonsai techniques making it labor intensive across a long period. Pollarding only takes labor when you’re actually harvesting the tree.
