The COFORD Council for Forest Research and Development is a representative body from the Forestry Sector in Ireland.  The Council advises on the formulation of the national programme on Competitive Forest Research for Development (also known as the COFORD Research Programme) as well as addressing developmental issues in the forest sector including wood supply and demand forecasting at an all Ireland level.  The COFORD research programme is the responsibility of the Research Division of the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine, and funds research of relevance to the forest sector in Ireland.
