About 80% of the regeneration area is regarded as in compliance with legal requirements of the Swedish Forestry Act. The recent follow-up also shows that 90% of final felled area was prepared with scarification, which is about 15 percentage points more than in 1990s.
Scarification is more common in northern Sweden where nearly all land planted has been scarified.
Swedish Forest Agency will further analyze the results and present the analysis on 24 of November 2014.
