FWPA announces investment in new forestry research
Friday 18 Jul 2025
Forest & Wood Products Australia (FWPA) is pleased to
announce the approval of $8.75 million in funding for seven new forestry
research projects following our January 2025 open call for proposals.
This investment is part of FWPA’s ongoing commitment to advancing
innovation across the forest and wood products sector.
The selected projects bring together researchers, growers, and industry
partners from across the country to address high-priority challenges in
areas such as:
- Forest health and biosecurity,
- Phytosanitary options for log exports,
- Remote sensing, automation and robotics, and
- Invasive plant species control.
These projects are supported through FWPA’s unique collaborative
funding model, which brings together industry levies, Australian
Government contributions, and co-investment from research providers and
industry stakeholders.
