Tech/Engineering - Agriculture / Leaseholding | | Swedish term or phrase: husbehovsvirke | I get this sense of this term. It is wood that can be gathered for use in maintaining the property.
Context:
"Husbehovsvirke: Arrendatorn får avverka skog i högst följande kvantiteter för reparationer, stängsel och bränsle enligt jordägarens anvisningar." |
