Abstract

THE First British Forestry Conference was held in London 1920 ; it practically heralded the new Forestry Commission which had been set up under the 1919 Parliament Forestry Bill and placed it in the saddle under the presidency of that very able and keen landowner, the late Lord Lovat. One of the not least important subjects under consideration at the first meeting was forestry education, and it is interesting to contrast the position held by forest education in the Empire at that date with that of to-day. One of the outcomes of this first Conference was the inauguration of the Imperial Forestry Institute at Oxford four years later.
