Investing in forestry through land purchase in Ireland

Forestry as a profitable farming enterprise for you

Green Belt’s team of foresters actively source land which is suitable for afforestation at competitive prices. On an annual basis Green Belt source an average of 1000ha of land which it makes available to those interested in investing in forestry in Ireland.

Green Belt does not add a commission onto the price of the land but make the land available to the investor at cost price.

Once GB has attained planting approval for the land from the forest service the investor closes the land sale through their solicitor. Green Belt will then plant and manage the new forest at no additional cost to the investor by utilizing the planting grants that are available through the Department of Agriculture and Food.

Typical land prices vary from €3,000 per acre to €3,300 and the size of the farms available range from 15 acres to 100 acres plus. The returns available from this investment come firstly from the tax free forestry premium available at an average rate of €200 per acre and secondly the inherent growth in value of the forest itself.
