The UK government has pledged to increase tree planting rates in England by three times its current levels by 2025. This legally-binding target means approximately 16.5%<\/span><\/a> of all land should be forest and woodland by 2050, but recent research<\/a><\/span> suggests England is only at 13%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To help reach this target, the UK government is placing more focus and support on increasing tree planting and seed and sapling production. The Tree Production Capital Grant (TPCG) provides financial support to any farmer<\/strong> or nursery that can help the government meet this target.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The grant is available in stages, yet many English farmers are missing out on crucial funding they could access using the simple 1-step application process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are interested in the TPCG, here’s what you need to know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Tree Production Capital Grant will cover up to half of a project’s cost if the project helps increase the number of trees, seeds and saplings or improves the quality, diversity and biosecurity of British woodlands.<\/p>\n\n\n
