SFGS Deer Fence Lines

Scottish Forestry Grant Scheme - SFGS


Following publication of the Scottish Executive’s Scottish Forestry Strategy 'Forests for Scotland' the opportunity was taken to review the Woodland Grant Scheme and the Farm Woodland Premium Scheme and give them a greater Scottish focus.


The Scottish Forestry Grant Scheme (SFGS) - encouraged the creation and management of woods and forests to provide economic, environmental and social benefits.


Grants were available under three main areas:

- Grants for woodland expansion - creating new woodlands.

- Restocking grants, for replanting following felling.

- Stewardship grants, for a range of activities in existing woodlands.


Applications for SFGS grants started in June 2003 and closed in August 2006.


Most grants for SFGS were based on a percentage of Standard Costs of agreed operations. The Standard Cost took account of the costs of labour, plants, machinery, materials and supervision to do work to the specification as set out in the SFGS Standard Costs and Specifications Booklet.


Depending upon the level of public benefit, grant payments were either at 60% or 90% of the Standard Cost. In the case of restocking, Standard Costs were mostly pitched at 75% of the new planting Standard Costs.


Grants were available for planting proposals that met one or more of the following objectives:


- Establishing well-designed productive woodland.

- Expanding areas of native woodland, preferably through natural

regeneration and the development of Forest Habitat Networks.

- Improving riparian habitat.

- Improving the quality and setting of urban or post-industrial areas.

- Improving the diversity of the farmed and crofting landscape.


Details of all eligible operations are set out within the 'Applicants Booklet' available from Conservancy Offices.

Statement

SFGS data was captured from approved contracts. Boundaries were interpreted from applicants maps using OS data, aerial photography, LPIS field boundaries and legacy grant scheme data. Boundaries were snapped to OS Mastermap polygon data wherever appropriate.


This dataset was regularly updated following the schemes closure up until 2017. No further updates will be applied.
