Project Information:
AA2025E_TayeneP_S3 is a plantation forestry project located near Tayene, approximately 30km northeast of Launceston in Tasmania. It was registered in February 2025 and covers 81ha.
Plantation forestry projects involve managing and maintaining a plantation forest for the commercial harvesting of wood products at specific commercial tree stocking densities. The methodology legally ensures the land continues to operate as a forest and does not revert to pasture or alternative agriculture, maintaining the sequestered carbon in both the living biomass and the harvested wood products.
The North East Tasmania area is well known for commercial timber operations and livestock grazing. The region is considered a high rainfall zone and local soils generally consist of highly productive ferrosols (basalt), podzols, and clay loams.
This project sequesters carbon by avoiding the conversion of an existing or recently harvested plantation forest to non-forested land by continuing the plantation. On 28 July 2026, a variation was made to the project boundary, resulting in some of the originally listed areas being removed. The project is actively managed by SFM Environmental Solutions, who act as an agent on behalf of the proponent, The Trust Company (Australia) Limited as trustee for The Tasmanian Carbon Afforestation Sub-Trust.
