Timber industry support programs

The Victorian Government has developed the Victorian Forestry Plan to assist the timber industry and timber communities as it manages its transition away from native forest harvesting.

Under the plan, a more than $200 million in support provides workers, businesses and communities support for this transition, to retain industry, community capability and jobs.

Current grants:

• Victorian Timber Innovation Fund
• Forestry Business Transition Voucher Program
• Local Development Strategy Grants
• Sawmill Opt-Out Scheme
• Community Development Fund
