Year 2016: The area of forestry land is based on the 11th National Forest Inventory (NFI11), 2009-2013.
Year 2019: The results for the whole country, Southern- and Northern Finland have been calculated using the measurements of NFI12 during the years 2014-2017.
Regional results have been calculated using the measurements of last five years (2013-2017) in NFI11 and in NFI12. In the Åland Islands and in Northern Lapland only the measurements of NFI11 have been made for the present.
