Timber Sales Systems

The following timber sales systems are available for downloading:

ITGA Template Tree Sales Agreement

The ITGA Template Tree Sales Agreement for the sale of Standing Timber was part funded by Forest Service, Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM) in 2014, to facilitate the sale of timber in thinnings and fellings from private forests in Ireland.

In 2017 the Forest Service commenced circulating this Template Tree Sales Agreement with felling licences in order to promote best practice amongst growers in harvesting and timber sales.

Furthermore, the Template Tree Sales Agreement meets with forest certification requirements and was adopted as one of the template documents for use in the 'Services to Develop a Group Certification Template for Private Forest Owners - A Pilot Project', which was completed in May 2018.

It was also adopted by DAFM as a mandatory topic to be included in the Forestry Knowledge Transfer Group (KTG) Programme.

Following Funding from DAFM under the recent Woodland Support Projects 2021/2022, a revision of the Template Tree Sales Agreement is currently being undertaken.
ITGA are consulting and seeking comments and suggestions on the updating and revision of the Tree Sales Agreement from members and the sector.
Comments and suggestions on the Tree Sales Agreement can be emailed to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. prior to 1st November 2021 as part of this consultation process.
