Hunting associations
About half the land in Sweden is owned by the state and large companies, particularly in the northern and central regions.
On the greater part of this land the hunting rights are leased out to individuals or hunting associations.
In the areas where the available land is limited, co-operation is necessary to ensure viable hunting. Owners of hunting rights in various areas therefore often pool their rights to make larger hunting areas. Co-operation is particularly necessary for moose hunting to ensure conservation of the stock.
