 What is the contribution that Welsh-grown timber makes to a regenerative economy and the more efficient use of natural resources in Wales?

Summary of the Research Question / Evidence Need:

We have reliably information on timber flows into and out of the UK, but data on Welsh grown timber contributing to a regenerative economy in Wale is lacking. This evidence would help inform future policy and delivery options.

Keywords (discipline, other): Woodland
Urban
Land use and soil
Waste
Energy
Ecosystem resilience
