Forest 360 - Forestry management Case Study Owhaoko Trust

Location: Taihape & Rangitikei, Central North Island

Date: 2011 – Present

Terrain: Central North Island High Country

Solution: Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) assessment, application and registration

“Forest360 ensured we got our full entitlement for our future whakapapa – for that we were very grateful.”

Background

  • Block Size: 1,230ha in the ETS
  • Trust had worked with another provider previously
  • Forest360 were known for their work with two other Trusts

Response

  • Forest360 were able to secure additional carbon credits for the Trust, which they weren’t aware they were entitled to
  • Negotiated a ‘Save and Buy Back’ agreement on carbon credits, which was a real plus for the Trust needing to raise funds
  • Advised and assessed their registration of carbon credits, resulting in a higher application

“These guys were good as gold and kept in contact with us throughout the whole process.”
