Management plans

[Kat1e]

Can anyone point me in the direction of a good example of a woodland management plan? I am currently writing one and would like to see some good examples. Thanks!

In what context?

[Kat1e]

General management plans for young plantation of mainly native broadleaf species, not too fussy on specifics, would just like to see some examples of good practice in writing management plans. Thanks.

under the section on management plans on the FC website there are three worked examples i will have a look for the link,

 

 

here you go:

there are now 4 examples on the bottom left hand side of the page

also if the management plan is being paid for under the WP grant from FC it needs to be in their format as per the examples in those pdfs, whilst the woodland trust example is a worked through management plan it wont aid you in securing funding, as having the FC type one approved then allows you to access WIG's and WMG's funding streams for assisting in funding woodland operations

Thanks, have googled of course, but was looking for a recommendation of a source that is known to be good, as there's usually lots of rubbish on the internet. Thanks for your suggestion!

No the plan is not grant funded, however I will look at their format for hints, thanks. May have to look into the grants available for plans too, ta for reminding me!

Both WT and FC are very good, however if you are considering applying for FC funding at any time in the future I would stick with their format - good links from Charlie BTW
