Forestry Establishment Grant & Premiums

Forestry establishment is covered by a full, exchequer backed grant. This is to encourage further planting nationally to increase the national cover from below 11% to 18%.

Green Belt's foresters will assess your land and make the most suitable application to match your lands and your expectations. Your local forester will assist you through the entire process.

Premiums are paid at varying rates based on species and area planted. The download highlights the generous, tax free premiums available.
