The second in a series looking at the future of our forests in the UK. Tom Barnes meets Dougal Driver, the head of Grown In Britain, to discuss how - and why - we manage British forests. Grown in Britain is an organisation that encourages responsible woodland management, and certifies woodland products. Dougal explains that successful woodland management ensures that the forest is productive, as well as delivering biodiversity, carbon capture and water management benefits. He says that just as a gardener thins carrots, a woodland can be 'thinned' to produce quality timber. Tom Barnes manages Vastern Timber, a family firm that has worked with British-grown timber since 1904. In this series ' Wood for the Trees' he wants to learn more about the future of British forests, and the risks and opportunities ahead. 00:00 The Importance of Woodland Management 01:11 Dougal Driver from Grown in Britain 01:22 What is Woodland Management? 01:57 Why is it important to manage woodland? 02:55 Different types of woodlands need different management strategies 03:53 Planning the forests of the future 04:15 Importance of well managed timber for sustainable construction, biodivesity and our health and wellbeing 05:04 Woodland Management in the UK now 06:47 The future of Woodland Managent in UK, hopes and fears, Biosecurity
