Woodland Management

Dear all
 
A quick question on the cost of woodland maintenance for 10 years because of 
disagreement with woodland to be adopted by the LPA in the future. 
 
Based on minimum maintenance regime, the cost of maintaining a m2 per annum 
would be 74.5 pence. Therefore, £7.45 for 10 years per m2.
 
10,000 sq metres = 1 hectare so maintenance of 1ha woodland for 10 years 
would be £74,500. 
 
Is my maths bad regarding the placing of the decimal point because £74k for 
minimal maintenance over 10 years appears excessive, especially for minimal 
maintenance like litter picking and odd tree surgery work.
 
Does anybody know of any national guidance or recognised guidance on cost of 
a m2  of woodland or cost for a hectare for a year
 
Thanks
 
Richard
