Landari Uplands 1 2022

ERF185686

Project Information:

Landari Uplands 1 2022 is a Plantation forestry project located in the Northern Midlands region of Tasmania, approximately 40km southeast of Launceston. It was registered in November 2023 and covers 139.72 hectares.

Plantation forestry projects involve maintaining existing plantations, converting short-rotation plantations to long-rotation, or establishing new plantation forests. Standard requirements stipulate planting and maintaining commercial tree species at an appropriate stocking density to achieve forest cover, typically requiring at least 20% canopy cover and trees capable of reaching 2 metres in height.

The Northern Midlands region of Tasmania is predominantly known for mixed farming, sheep grazing, and widespread forestry operations. The environment typically experiences moderate to high rainfall, and soils are generally podzolic loams and clays often derived from dolerite and basalt.

This project specifically sequesters carbon by avoiding the conversion of an existing or recently harvested plantation forest back to non-forested land, alongside establishing new plantation forest areas. On June 19, 2024, the project underwent a variation to amend its designated area. Furthermore, on May 8, 2026, the participant name was officially varied to include Robert Downie alongside LANDARI PTY LTD. Landari Pty Ltd operates as a significant carbon developer in the region, managing numerous other registered forestry and carbon projects across Tasmania.
