The ITC Hardwood 2008 Project contains 2 options; High Value Timber with a 20 year term, and Pulpwood with a 10 year term. You can mix units of each option.
 

High Value Timber Option

High Value Timber Option – Investment in plantations of native Australian hardwoods managed primarily for the production of high value sawlogs from harvesting between 15-20 years after planting. It is expected that commercial wood products will be produced from thinning the plantations approximately 6-8 years after planting. In respect of the High Value Timber Option the area of each Unit will be 0.75 hectares and will comprise a Woodlot of each of four different species.

The High Value Timber Option will comprise plantings of Tasmanian Blue Gum (70%), Spotted Gum (10%), Red Mahogany (10%) and Gympie Messmate (10%).

 

Pulpwood Options

Pulpwood Option – Investment in plantations of native Australian hardwoods managed for the production of pulpwood from a once-only harvest approximately 10 years after planting. It is not expected that the pulpwood plantations will be thinned.

The area of a Pulpwood Unit may vary depending on the productivity of the property on which your Units are located. Each Pulpwood Unit is to be an area assessed as capable of producing approximately 225 cubic metres of pulpwood approximately 10 years after planting. Pulpwood Units will have an approximate area in the range 0.8–1.2 hectares.
