We published an article here at forestry.com about how Swedish forest authorities decided to publish all felling applications online. Open for everyone to read. You can find it here
It would be very interesting to know more about the situation in different countries when it comes to the Forest acts and the legislation. Do you need to apply or get a permission to harvest your own forest in your country?

I don’t need a permit to harvest my own timber in the USA. I own 90 acres of land and it is where I get all of my firewood. I ty to be smart about it by removing unhealthy looking trees first. Commercial loggers are subject to conservation law to some extent with regard to wetlands.
In the UK if you are felling over 5 m3, you need a felling licence regardless of private or public ownership.

Do you need to apply or get a permission to harvest your own forest in your country?If you would like to find out about everything in Canada you just need to meet Bucken Billy Ray, and watch his videos.
Here is a man who has spent his whole life living and working in the Forest’s in Canada, you can really learn a lot by watching his videos.
Not implying everything he does is safe but he is a wonderful person who loves his forests and loves trees and he loves people.
Let me know what you think.
Very interesting films. Thank you Ralph.
