'LANDARI Tasmanian Plantations 2021

LANDARI Tasmanian Plantations 2021 is a plantation forestry project located across multiple sites in the Break O'Day and Northern Midlands local government areas, situated roughly 40 to 70km southwest and northeast of Launceston in Tasmania. It was registered in May 2021 and initially covered an area of 672 hectares, though a variation in July 2026 removed some areas from the project's listed boundaries.

Plantation forestry projects operating under the short-to-long rotation schedule sequester carbon by converting an existing short-rotation plantation forest into a long-rotation plantation forest for the commercial harvesting of wood products. Standard requirements for this methodology dictate that carbon abatement is calculated based on the net increase in the average project carbon stocks, less the baseline average carbon stocks that would have existed during repeated short harvest rotations.

The Northern Midlands and Break O'Day areas are heavily utilized for commercial timber production, as well as beef and sheep grazing operations. The region is considered a high-rainfall, cool temperate zone, and the soils generally feature fertile basalts, ferrosols, and podzolic clay loams which provide excellent moisture retention for dense forest growth.

This project is managed by the proponent Landari Pty Ltd, a specialist carbon developer. Landari operates a large portfolio of plantation forestry projects across Australia, often working to transition traditional short-term timber properties into longer-rotation or permanent carbon sinks to generate Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) alongside future commercial timber revenues.
