Getting the forestry harvesting process right.
Confidently understand the tree harvesting process as a small forest owner, what’s required of you and the questions you should be asking along the way.
The guide to harvesting for small forest owners will support you to plan, prepare and work with contractors to harvest your forest.
These resources have been designed by Perrin Ag as part of a project we have been working on with Auckland Council (Healthy Waters), with input from industry experts.
Please note that the forestry harvesting guide was designed for Auckland Council so there are some specific rules that may not apply to all readers. If your forestry block sits outside of the Auckland region it is advised you check which local rules apply.
You can access the downloadable guide here.
