Farm Woodland Management Demonstrations

Farm Woodland Management Demonstrations

21 July 2011, Douglas & Angus Estates, Lanark

Do you know the value of the woodlands on your farm? Do you know that through simple management, you could provide a sustainable source of fuel for your home and grow high quality broadleaf timber?

Forestry Commission Scotland (FCS), in partnership with the Association of Scottish Hardwood Sawmillers (ASHS) the Scottish Agricultural College (SAC) and the Scottish Rural Property and Business Association (SRPBA) invite you to the first of two farm woodland management demonstration days, with indoor presentations and outdoor practical demonstrations. Topics to be covered include:

  • How wood fuel can be harvested from your woodlands providing a sustainable and cheaper alternative to kerosene or LPG.
  • How to grow, tend and harvest high value broadleaf trees.
  • Funding options for wood fuel boilers, including the RHI (Renewable Heat Incentive).
