Function: Average annual yields

Annual yields of berries and mushrooms have to be assessed species by species since weather conditions affect different species differently. For berries, the yield estimates are done annually for bilberry and cowberry. Average yields for bilberry is ca. 22,3 kg/ha and for cowberry 22 kg/ha. There are strong regional differences in berry productivity.
