Romain is an assistant economist specialising in the economics of sustainable forestry. His research focuses on the financial dimensions of woodland creation and management, including costs related to site preparation, planting, fencing, long-term upkeep, and the economic impacts of wildlife. He also examines how these costs influence broader land-use decisions and environmental policy. Currently, Romain is involved in developing a UK Forest Sector Model, a project designed to capture the dynamic interplay between forestry policy, land use, and market forces.
