Forestry Tasmania

Forestry Tasmania is a forest management corporation established by an Act of Parliament and wholly owned by the Government of Tasmania, Australia.

Under the State of Tasmania's Forestry Act 1920, Forestry Tasmania is mandated to manage 1.5 million hectares of state forest as multiple use forest. Sustainable yield logging is currently permitted in approximately one-half of this area. The remainder is reserved and managed for other values such as conservation and recreation.

Forestry Tasmania is certified under the Australian Forestry Standard, which is endorsed by the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification.

Forestry Tasmania's operations are overseen by a Board of Management, which is responsible to the Tasmanian Minister for Forests and Treasurer.
