Coillte To Fell 16,000 Trees To Stop Disease
Sixteen thousand trees are to be cut down in Gougane Barra Forest Park in Co Cork to prevent the spread of a fungal-like disease.
Forestry company Coillte confirmed the disease, phytophthora ramorum, earlier this month.
Control measures have now been put in place in accordance with the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine protocols.
It is expected that the felling will take six months with the park remaining closed throughout.
