Legal Definitions - forestry right

A forestry right is a type of land interest that gives a person the right to:

• Enter the land
• Establish and maintain a crop of trees
• Harvest the trees
• Construct works for that purpose

For example, if a person owns a piece of land with a forestry right, they can plant trees on the land, take care of them, and eventually cut them down to sell the wood. They can also build things like roads or buildings to help with the forestry work.

Another example would be a company that has a forestry right on a large piece of land. They can use the land to grow trees for lumber, paper, or other products. They can also use the land to build things like sawmills or processing plants.

Overall, a forestry right is a way for people to use land for forestry purposes without actually owning the land.
