Sucessful clearfelling operations for peatland restoration at Bunloit
In Bunloit, felling commercial plantations on deep peat have now been completed, along with thinning other areas to transition to continuous cover forestry. The deep peat, like in 'Bill's plantation' where it is up to 8 metres in depth, will be rewetted and restored. Thinned areas will benefit from more light and greater species diversity, becoming mixed, productive woodlands that will no longer need to be clearfelled as an even-aged monoculture.
