The Forest Products Commission (FPC) has launched a campaign calling for forestry operators, from around Australia, who may be available to undertake commercial harvesting, ecological thinning, or log haulage linked to the FPC operations.
These operations help the industry as it adapts and responds to significant changes, including the focus on thinning for ecological health within our native forests, increased utilisation of fibre from mining operations, and the harvesting of sharefarms.
These changes require new, innovative approaches and additional capacity which is above and beyond the existing contractor capacity.
The additional capacity may also be required in the short term to manage the transition from operations under the current Forest Management Plan 2014-2023 (FMP) to the next FMP 2024-2033.
The campaign to reach new commercial forestry operators is advertised across a range of Australasian timber and forestry industry publications over the coming months.
