        Seriously, so much time wasted on discussing landuse=forestry
and it has 9[sic!] uses.

    I'd quite happily change all 'my' local landuse=forest to
landuse=forestry ... there would then be a lot more than 9.

 Are you sure that area covered by trees and area used for forestry purposes is exactly the same?


Yes. Well some of the time the trees are gone, not from all areas at once but from time to time - after all the trees get used to make things like houses.

These areas are government owned -
"Forestry Corporation of NSW is the largest manager of commercial native and plantation forests in NSW. We manage recreation <http://www.forestrycorporation.com.au/visit>, environmental sustainability <http://www.forestrycorporation.com.au/our-forests> and renewable timber production <http://www.forestrycorporation.com.au/our-forests/timber> in more than two million hectares of NSW State forests." "We are Australia's largest grower of plantation pine <http://www.forestrycorporation.com.au/our-forests/silviculture>, producing enough timber to construct a quarter of the houses built in Australia each year, and produce certified sustainable <http://www.forestrycorporation.com.au/our-forests/certification> native hardwood timber. A State Owned Corporation with an independent Board of Directors <http://www.forestrycorporation.com.au/about/forestry-corporation-board>, our sustainability framework <http://www.forestrycorporation.com.au/our-forests/sustainability-framework> sets out our principles for managing both the forests and our business"

That does not include private property areas that are also used for timber production. And yes they are mapped in OSM .. using copyright material that OSM has been granted written approval to use.
