The expected gross gain corresponds to the amount (in the selected currency) that we will pay you back when your trees have been cut. It is based on the natural growth rate of a tree, which is estimated at around 2% per year. This expected gain is referred to as “gross" because it is calculated on the basis of the price of the tree excluding VAT.

### Chestnut
Chestnut (Castanea sativa), also known as Sweet chestnut or Spanish chestnut, comes from the Latin word "Castanea" originating from Asia Minor and the Caucasus region. It is a deciduous tree of the Fagaceae family. It produces fruit: chestnuts. When the trees are in abundance in a defined area, it forms a chestnut grove. In autumn, this foliage turns into a pretty yellow colour, which quickly turns brown. As with Oak and Beech, two trees of the same family, the leaves of Chestnut remain on the tree for part of the winter. This vegetation doesn't flower until after about twenty years.

### About Launay Guen Forest
### About Launay Guen Forest
The Launay Guen forest is located in the Côtes-d’Armor in Brittany, France. This region is characterised by a cool climate with abundant rainfall (over 1000 mm/year), often misty and windy.
Situated on a south-east facing slope, the woods stretch across from a soft hill, and it borders the pond of Launay’s castle.
With a total area of 121 hectares, it’s divided into 11 forestry sites of varied sizes and types. We acquired it in 2021 from a private owner.
