Investment and Trade in Forestry
Victoria has a well established forestry industry based on native eucalypt forest, softwood plantations and more recently established hardwood plantations.
The state’s availability of land, infrastructure and skills has created competitive advantages in the growing and processing of timber.
These factors provide an excellent basis for new investment in private plantations and farm forestry to help meet growing world demand for wood products.
