Fast timber crop establishment

Ready to accelerate forest establishment?

Fast timber crop establishment saves costs and can reduce rotation length.  But how do you know your saplings are free to grow without putting boots on the ground?

Reforestation

Speed up time to FTG and focus resources where they’re needed

Establishing timber crops takes time and careful monitoring to make sure saplings are free to grow and have the strongest opportunity to thrive. After all, slow establishment tends to drive up costs and result in longer rotation times – and meeting IRR goals start to become challenging.

For many foresters, accurately monitoring large remote areas across geographic spread to ensure young crops have sufficient growing room is expensive and just impractical. Plus it’s tricky to figure out which sites have establishment issues.

What if you could accurately monitor space to grow at scale and cost-effectively? And what if you could use that data to reduce costs by keeping interventions to a minimum? How could that improve your speed to cash and reduce rotation times?

With Forest SAT Reforestation, you can. Reforestation remotely quantifies softwood percentage and maps crop establishment across your restocking areas. This means you can reduce the risk of neglect in remote areas, prioritize and focus maintenance resources, and evidence establishment in order to access discounted cash flows associated with investment.

Take a look at our Timber Crop Establishment video to see how it will work for you.
