Ateb
Atebwyd gan Minister for Climate Change
We want most woodland expansion in Wales to be via other landowners and managers choosing to create woodland. Where Natural Resources Wales (NRW) do seek to expand the Welsh Government Woodland Estate, it is the role of NRW to identify suitable land.
NRW seek to offer fair market value and avoid competition with other buyers. They focus on parcels of land which are near or adjacent to existing Welsh Government woodland, and of lower agricultural value. All the land NRW consider is carefully screened for suitability following the UK Forestry Standard.
