avlingskravene

Avlingskravene is a Norwegian term used to describe a set of yield-related requirements in agriculture. The word combines avling (harvest, yield) with kravene (the demands), and the plural form indicates multiple criteria or standards. The concept is commonly encountered in government subsidy schemes, agricultural contracts, and lending covenants, where producers must meet specified yield targets.

In practice, avlingskravene may specify minimum average yields per hectare, acceptable levels of crop losses, or quality-adjusted yield criteria. Measurement can rely on official statistics, farm records, or field assessments, and the target period can be annual or span several seasons. Compliance affects subsidy eligibility, contract pricing, or loan terms; failure to meet the targets can result in penalties, reduced payments, or renegotiation of terms.

Etymology and usage: The term reflects a focus on the harvest outcome as a basis for policy or agreement. While not a universal legal term, avlingskravene appears in public discourse and sector-specific documentation to describe yield-based obligations within agricultural contexts.

Related concepts include crop yield benchmarks, agricultural policy, subsidy conditions, and contractual covenants in farming. These terms collectively describe how harvest outcomes influence financial support, contractual rights, and risk management for agricultural producers.
