A coalition of landowning organisations and rural workers, including the John Muir Trust, Community Land Scotland, the Scottish Tenant Farmers Association, Trees for Life and the RSPB, are hailing the Scottish Government’s groundbreaking commitment to a National Deer Management Plan.

The plan aims to reduce deer densities across the country and encourage natural regeneration at a landscape scale with the Government stepping in to fund the national effort.

We at the Trust, along with fellow landowning charity Trees for Life, provided a briefing showing that this approach would allow the Government to triple its woodland creation targets while saving around £900 million in taxpayer money.
