Abstract: Private Forestry Vision:
Private Forestry will make a significant contribution to the growth of a multifaceted and dynamic Forest and Forest Products Industry with economic, social and environmental benefits for all Victorians.
- a sustainable and competitive private forestry industry
- Increase positive and reduce negative environmental impacts of private forestry
- capable private forestry communities

The project was initiated in 1998 through the NHT project Overcoming information barriers to farm forestry. This project enabled the:
- expansion of the Farm Forestry Agriculture Note series from five, to over 80
- improvements to and greater development of the Private Forestry website
- development of over 80 FAQs and information packs for DPIs call centre
- development of an email list (distribution of the Private Forestry Update) for raising awareness of new publications and research, relevant internet sites, events, etc. amongst extension professionals
- annual conference of Victorian private forestry extension providers (of which there have been 6 to date).

The project has since been funded by DPI and continues to provide quality private forestry information to a broad range of stakeholders.
