Unfortunately, due to a technical issue, Forestry Grant Scheme applications will be unavailable between 1 and 15 January, 2016. This means that you’ll be unable to draft or submit Forestry Grant Scheme applications during this time.

This technical issue also affects any Agri-Environment Climate Scheme draft applications. Although you can’t actually submit an application for the Agri-Environment Climate Scheme until the scheme officially opens, you can draft one – however from 1 to 15 January, you won’t be able to do this.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
