Abstract

This Regulation establishes a subsidy to help ensure that planting of forest plants continue as normal in the spring of 2020. The scheme aims at alleviating negative consequences in the forestry sector as a result of the outbreak of Covid-19 by securing labor. The subsidy is set at NOK 1.30 per forest plant to help offset the cost of planting due to restrictions that have been imposed after the outbreak of Covid-19.
