Options to consider when managing farm woodland and the process of planning to establish shelterbelts or woodland areas on farm will be outlined at Skirrid Farm, Abergavenny.

Iwan Parry, of Tilhill Forestry will discuss management of small conifer blocks on-farm and there will be a demonstration of felling and extraction of established blocks.
