English translation:green branchwood planting
Explanation:
This is not entirely a shot in the dark. The stuff growing between timber trees in a plantation (grönris) is called green branchwood. But, the 'planting' is mostly a guess.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Apparently, this concerns a new technology for forest management developed by a retired Swedish professor. I am expecting some feedback from him. I will wait with grading until I see what translation he recommends.

  -> And how many hits does the Swe term get? It's quite obvious that the author does not master the Swedish language. One can but guess what the writer intended to communicate.
