This July, Venture Taranaki will host their third
Branching Out event to explore trees and their value chain.
Wood and fibre products are of increasing value and interest
worldwide, and are a worthy consideration for further
investigation in Taranaki.
At the event, on Wednesday,
28 July, at the War Memorial Centre in Stratford, attendees
will hear from experts how trees are currently utilised in
Taranaki, the economic opportunities, an overview of carbon
farming and the Emission Trading Schemes, and projected
future tree and fibre products. Topics will also cover
