Landari PPPA 3

ERF160117

Project Information:

Landari PPPA 3 is a Plantation Forestry project located across multiple sites ranging from 20km to 60km south and west of Bathurst in the Central Tablelands of NSW. It was registered in December 2020 and covers 1034.37ha.

Plantation forestry projects involve sequestering carbon by establishing and maintaining new commercial plantation forests, or converting existing short-rotation plantations to long-rotation ones. Standard requirements for this project involve establishing a new plantation forest intended for the commercial harvesting of wood products while maintaining carbon stocks.

The Bathurst, Oberon, and Cabonne areas are known for agriculture, predominantly sheep and cattle grazing, as well as significant commercial forestry operations. The region experiences moderate, stable rainfall of around 720 to 750 mm annually, and soils are generally Chromosols (red and yellow duplex soils) and Dermosols (tertiary basalts).

This project has undergone several variations since its inception, including adding new land areas in 2021. Originally registered by Landari Pty Ltd, the participant name was varied to Group Energy Pty Ltd in February 2023. In 2025, its official registration date was updated to February 2022, and it transitioned to the updated 2022 Plantation Forestry Methodology Determination. Group Energy Pty Ltd actively operates several similarly named "Landari" forestry projects across Australia.
