This indicator (Indicator 1.1a) uses the area for each forest type over time as a broad measure of the extent to which forest ecosystems and their diversity are being maintained. Reporting on forest tenure aids our understanding of how different land management regimes may impact on forest biodiversity.
This part of Indicator 1.1a Area of forest by forest type and tenure, published December 2023, presents the change in forest area over time.

The 'Forest inventory for private native forestry, farm forestry and Indigenous forestry' project was developed under the 2018 National Forest Industries Plan [3.1 MB] Growing a Better Australia – A billion trees for jobs and growth. A key goal of the project is to improve the national description of Australia’s forests in areas outside the publicly managed estate.
This data visualisation allows users to select regions from around Australia to display data and a map of forest extent, forest tenure, forest and plantation types, employment in forestry, and the number of sawmills in the region selected.
Users can hover over the values and the bars in the data visualisation to see more information.
Area data are not to be taken as being more accurate than to the nearest 1,000 hectares.
