The budget allocation for Forestry for 2022 is €100,081,000. This provides for new planting, the serving of existing afforestation contracts, and payments in relation to forestry support schemes and forestry related activities.

Some €33,123,573 of the Forestry budget was spent in January, and this is just over the profiled amount of €33,103,100. The remainder of the budget has been apportioned to meet anticipated budgetary needs during the year and will be closely monitored.
