Professional forestry advice by an experienced forester

in sub-tropical forestry

 

I have 38 years experience in all aspects of forestry in native forest management and assessment of resource and vegetation identification and

exotic and native species plantation planning, implementation and management as well as having 7 years experience in planning and management of native species irrigated with effluent.

 

Previously I was employed by the Department of Primary Industries and Fisheries for 38 years in operational forestry however most of my time was spent in Forestry research.  Initially I started my career in NQ then worked in western Queensland before settling as a forestry researcher in southern coastal Qld.
