Small woodlots of macrocarpa have been established on farms throughout the country and if well pruned, healthy trees yield strong, durable timber. Macrocarpa can be used for many purposes around a farm such as exterior joinery, weatherboards, gates and fence posts, and is in demand for making furniture, interior panels, flooring and framings. These 11-year-old trees are in a plantation in Balclutha, Otago.
