Silvanus Forestry offers a range of high-performance varieties, including the fast-growing, high yielding ‘Turbo’ and ‘Turbo Obelisk’ Robinia varieties, alongside the versatile Salix alba ‘Corvinus’ willow variety.
Generative robinia selected over several generations. The breeding was aimed at rapid growth and surplus yield in juvenile age, resulting in an increase in wood mass of about 30-50% compared to common robinia. It is recommended primarily for energy plantations and afforestation. It is typically available as 60-100 cm tall free-rooted seedlings sown from seed.
A premium product. A group of varieties selected from the ‘Turbo’ strains and vegetatively propagated. It is particularly recommended for industrial plantations due to its fast and straight growth. Typically available as 60-100 cm tall free-rooted seedlings.
A fast growing willow variety. It can be used for afforestation, as a raw material for energy wood plantations and as a plantation for industrial wood. Typically sold as cuttings of 20-30 cm, but other sizes are available on request.
Plantations of specially bred varieties grown in a wide network using intensive cultivation techniques
CO2 sequestration through high quality industrial timber and wood products ensuring long-term carbon removal.
Sustainable forestry that can withstand the adverse effects of climate change.
If you are considering afforestation, you are advised to apply to the wide range of different state aid available for planting and maintenance work, depending on the tree species.
Support for afforestation
If you are considering afforestation, you should consider applying. The property will be classified as forest, but you can apply for state aid for planting and maintenance work, to varying degrees depending on the tree species. Details are available here
Agroforestry systems
Wooded pasture, groups of trees or field protection afforestation can be implemented with public support.
