Nearly 500 landowners recently benefited from a one-to-one appointment with a Teagasc forestry adviser. The clinics had a focus on forest creation opportunities for landowners.
Simon White of the Limerick Tipperary Woodland Owners and Derek McCabe of the Irish Forestry Owners are two growers directly impacted by ash dieback. They share their experiences of the disease.
The new forestry programme is very ambitious, both in terms of targets, and in balancing economic objectives with wider environmental and social objectives, writes Barry Delaney.
There are 12 afforestation forest types in the Forestry Programme 2023-27 along with two native tree area schemes. Apart from two – FT 3 and 4 – all are relevant to farmers. Donal Magner reports.
Letters were issued this week by the Department of Agriculture to bodies representing forestry growers asking if they wished to take part in what is termed an ash dieback taskforce.
The IFA has claimed that the new forestry programme will result in a reduced timber productive area and higher overall establishment costs for farmers.
