Management Plans Edit

Management Plans provided a simpler alternative to Forest Plans for woodlands under 100 hectares. They are required as part of the eligibility criteria for SRDP grants. However no grant payments are available for the preparation of management plans.  The Management Plan must give a clear and concise description of the woodland and the indicative management proposals up to 10 years. These must be in accordance with the principles of sustainable forest management as defined by the UK Forestry Standard. Basic attribute information is captured during the digitising process. This is subsequently joined to more comprehensive information which is entered in an Excel spreadsheet by Scottish Forestry Conservancy staff. For more detailed information please see the metadata record on Scotland's SpatialData.gov.scot Metadata Portal.
