Woodland Creation & Carbon
FAM advises on woodland creation and carbon where new planting must be investable as well as consentable. We assess site quality, productive potential, grants, species, yield class, future timber, carbon, biodiversity, access, maintenance and long-term stewardship.
Investable woodland creation
Good woodland creation requires more than consent and grant support. Site quality, productive potential, yield class, establishment risk, access, future timber value, management costs, liquidity and long-term asset performance all need to be considered from the outset.
FAM helps clients review woodland creation through a forestry investment lens, balancing timber, carbon, biodiversity, land use and long-term ownership objectives.
Carbon as a value driver, not a substitute
Carbon can be an important part of the investment case, but it should not displace sound silviculture, practical establishment or future asset marketability. The strongest schemes align woodland design, verification, maintenance and long-term stewardship.
Carbon can enhance the investment case. Forestry must underwrite it.
