Certify your forest
Financial Advice
How should you allocate the return you receive from the forest? Should the entire sales amount be paid out directly, or should you make a payment plan? We can help you take advantage of the tax opportunities available with forest accounts, interest allocation, reserve funds, and more.
Our forestry services
We who work in the forestry department know the forest here and have many years of experience in managing it. Therefore, you can turn to us for advice and service regarding all matters relating to your forest.
Pre-commercial thinning
Pre-commercial thinning creates growth. By pre-commercial thinning in the forest, you transfer the growth to the most valuable trees. Although there is a cost when you clear, you can be sure that you will get a better return in the future. It is an action that pays off.
Thinning
The forest works in the same way as the carrot patch. Some are thinned out to give more living space to the trees you want to invest in. Without thinning, self-thinning occurs and trees die in competition with each other. At the same time, those who survive get less space and grow worse than they would have done in a thinned forest.
Final felling
As a forest owner, it is important to consider when to harvest the forest. Final felling should take place when the forest has finished growing, usually when the trees are between 60 and just over 100 years old. But other factors also affect your decision, such as the risk of damage to the forest and your financial situation.
Scarification
We often scarify harvested forest areas to facilitate forest regeneration. By exposing the mineral soil, the plant gets the opportunity to grow up in a more nutrient-rich environment.
Planting
According to the Forestry Act, you must establish a new forest no later than the third year after the year of harvesting. Skipping scarification and planting almost always means lost time and costly additional measures.
