Funding Area Forestry

The forestry funding sector of the state of Baden-Württemberg has long supported measures for sustainable forest management and the further development of nature parks. As a grant program, it is aimed at private individuals, public institutions, non-profit organizations, as well as companies based or operating in Baden-Württemberg. Projects in the fields of agriculture & rural development, environmental/nature conservation, climate protection, as well as energy efficiency & climate protection are funded. The goal is the preservation and maintenance of species-rich forests, the implementation of ecological forest conversion concepts, and the strengthening of regional nature park facilities through equipment, infrastructure, and environmental education offerings.

Applications can be submitted continuously, allowing flexible planning and implementation of various forest and nature park initiatives. A prerequisite for funding is a clear project connection to sustainable forest management or the development of nature parks in Baden-Württemberg. In particular, forest owners, municipalities, and sponsors of environmental initiatives benefit from financial relief for investments in climate and resource protection. Through the funding, valuable impulses are provided for biodiversity conservation and sustainable regional development.
