Is forestry a good investment?

Forest investments offer stable returns of 3-8 percent annually with low correlation to stock markets. They combine timber yield, CO2 sequestration, and land value appreciation. Agroforestry models with fast-growing species like Paulownia achieve higher returns than traditional forestry.

How does smart reforestation differ from mass afforestation?

Smart reforestation focuses on species diversity, soil health, and ecosystem restoration rather than monoculture plantations. It uses science-based approaches to select optimal tree species, planting densities, and management practices for maximum ecological and economic benefit.

How much CO2 does one hectare of forest sequester?

A conventional mixed forest sequesters 5-10 tonnes of CO2 annually per hectare. Paulownia agroforestry achieves 20-30 tonnes per hectare per year, making it the most efficient tree species for climate-oriented forestry.
