IMPROVED FOREST MANAGEMENT
Carbon Opportunities Through IFM
Forest managers and landowners across North America are participating in carbon markets and generating revenue while positively impacting local ecosystems and communities. Developing an Improved Forest Management (IFM) carbon project is often the most suitable pathway to create carbon credits from existing forests.
Enrolling forest land into an IFM project has become a financially viable alternative to timber harvesting. It can generate revenue for decades while leaving a lasting ecological and recreational legacy for your land. On large timberlands, IFM projects can diversify the revenue steam and create unique opportunities to increase brand value by reducing your operation’s overall carbon emissions or creating collaborations with partners in your value chain seeking their own carbon emission reductions.
Learn about our newest IFM project in this video, which describes how we partnered with CNX to protect biodiversity in the Appalachian Valley of Virginia.

By conserving existing carbon stocks, improved forest management projects generate immediate climate benefits, preserve a forest’s existing biodiversity, and deliver positive impacts to local communities.
