DAERA’s Environmental Farming Scheme (EFS) option provides grant support to help create small scale woodlands which will integrate trees with crops and/or livestock on the same plot of land.
The benefits of Agroforestry are:
- Enhance carbon storage
- Increase biodiversity
- Provide shelter for livestock
- Provide timber
- Enhance the landscape
Our Agroforestry is priced per plant.
We stock the following tree species for planting in your scheme:
- Alder
- Birch
- Cherry
- Hazel
- Rowan
- Willow
- Wild Plum
- Crab Apple
- Oak
- Scots Pine
- Willow
You can also purchase trees here which will also be suitable for additional schemes, such as Riparian Buffer and Native Tree Corridors.
If you have a specified mix for your plot of land, please call to discuss.
