The Forestry Control Tower is a building to fully automated producing of Woods. Successful forestry setup consists of four parts:
- designation of a control area
- creation of Forestry Designations within that control area
- assignment of Tree Planters and Tree Harvesters to the Tower
- *Do not forget to assign pickups to each Tree Harvester.
- supply of Tree Saplings
Then, the Planter will plant Tree Saplings and the Harvesters will cut grown trees.
Forestry Designations is assigned to the Tower unlike Mining Designation, and the Designation will be deleted when the Tower is deconstructed.
Harvesting options
The Forestry Control Tower has a "Harvesting Options," that decides the size the trees should be cut. 100% is a standard option, and it maximizes the number of the harvested Wood from each tree sapling. 60% can minimize the area for tree growing, but a +67% more Tree Saplings are required than 100%.

Throughput of Wood harvesting
Tree Planter plants one Tree Saplings per about 45 cells on average. If Harvesting Options is 100%, it takes 12 years (8640 ) to grow them and one grown tree will be 20 Woods. So, for example, the area for harvesting 1 / 60 of Woods is:
- 45 / (20 × 60 / 8640) = 324 cells (20.2 Forestry Designated tiles)
In other options, the throughput is shown in the following table:
