Swedish term or phrase: Ursprungsförbandet
From the same text as my previous question about introducing and planting Douglas fir in Sweden.

From a section entitled 'Beståndsbehandling' which describes methods for promoting the health and development of the stand.

Selektiv gallring (ev. höggallring) rekommenderas med tanke på kvalitetsdaningen. Första gallringen sätts in tidigt och intervallen bör vara relativt täta. Ursprungsförbandet är vanligen ungefär detsamma som gran på motsvarande mark.
Michael Purvis
English translation:original spacing
Explanation:
My hardcopy 'Skogsordlista' has förband as 'spacing.'

I found some reading searching "original spacing" + "forestry"

See what you find

Better to say "initial spacing" as per the Royal Forestry Society.
