re-veg.net.au - The benefits of forest cover in our landscape are widely appreciated by rural and urban communities alike: soil rejuvenation, protection from erosion, landscape stability, wildlife habitat, livestock protection, timber production, hydrological stability, sequestration of carbon dioxide and production of oxygen, rural and urban employment and, not to be underestimated is the aesthetic value of a healthy forest. For whatever reason, a healthy and productive forest on your property can add enormous value to the farm enterprise and at the same time can provide recognised environmental services to the broader community.

There are many landholders throughout Queensland who have integrated forest management into their production systems and who now benefit from years of healthy forest production.

However, despite popular opinion, forests in the rural landscape require active management. No matter what your purpose for growing or managing forests, the same fundamental management principles are required so that your forest can be healthy and productive.
