The state think that the forest is an important<br />

national resource, so they offer all owners<br />

free advice and courses through the Forestry<br />

Board (Skogsstyrelsen).<br />

All forest owners can also join<br />

one of Sweden's cooperative<br />

forestry associations. It’s free<br />

of charge and they provide<br />

some benefits like free<br />

counseling on site in your<br />

forest. When it is time for<br />

action in the forest, such as<br />

thinning or final felling one<br />

have, however, to pay for the<br />

membership through that they<br />

take a small portion of the<br />

payment for the trees. But the<br />

money is returned on the date<br />

the membership ends, and in<br />

between, they tend to give an<br />

interest on the money well<br />

above what the banks give.<br />

But to make a, momentarily seen bargain in woodland it’s probably required that the purchase is made at a<br />

time of recession and includes land with few competing buyers that drive up the price and a seller who is<br />

willing to sell even at a lower price than what’s considered to be normal. Which is more likely if the seller is<br />

a bank or the enforcement service.<br />
