Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Ireland's Forestry Programme and Strategy: Discussion
Mr. Fergus Moore:
We had a review of our national forest inventory plots that landed on an afforestation plot that was established in a previous programme between 2017 and 2021. The figures show that 76.6% were found to be on mineral soils and 12.8% were on organomineral soils. The remainder was on deep peats. Most of the planting that took place during the previous programme was on mineral soils. That planting accounted for a total of 76.6%.
