The Range-wide Conservation Plan for Longleaf Pine (2025-2040) represents the effort to frame conservation activities across the entire range of longleaf pine forests in a way that supports, improves and accelerates the cumulative success and effectiveness of longleaf conservation.  This is the second iteration of the Conservation Plan developed to guide continued efforts to reach the goal of eight million acres of longleaf pine forest in the Southeast. 

The annual Range-wide Accomplishment Reports highlight America’s Longleaf Restoration Initiative’s achievements for the fiscal year (October 1 to September 30) compiled from the many accomplishments of the vast network of colleagues dedicated to this effort.  These annual reports provide comprehensive insight into the progress being made towards the Range-wide Conservation Plan (2025-2040) across the nine-state historic longleaf range.  

This “blueprint” for the next three years details where priorities should be placed and identifies the associated actions needed at various scales to advance the longer-term goal of restoring eight million acres over a 15 year horizon.
