Heaps in W Vic too. As state govts move from timber harvesting in native forests to plantation based forestry it’ll become increasingly important to have a robust tagging scheme to differentiate native forests from plantations. The informal tag “plantation=yes” is widely used in SW WA and W Vic, albeit by a small number of editors. I’m not aware of a formal tag that conveys the same information.
