A new list of 28 tree species for foresters to grow in the future marks a major step forward in helping our woodlands and forests adapt to the growing threats of climate change. The list has been developed through extensive collaboration between Scottish Forestry, Forest Research, and a wide range of partners from across the forestry, conservation, and rural sectors. The trees chosen highlights a diverse mix of species that have been carefully assessed against strict scientific criteria to ensure they can withstand changing conditions while continuing to deliver economic, environmental, and community benefits. …Scottish Forestry commissioned experts from Forest Research to gather the scientific evidence to support the selection of trees. In total, over 100 datasets were compiled and analysed in thorough detail and more than 100 experts and industry leaders were involved in pulling together the work.
