Swedish term or phrase: grönyteproffsens självklara val
This translation is about foresty machinery and I think that the term grönyte/a could be translated as the English cathc-all 'plant' - as in 'Plant Hire Companies'. So could the phrase be 'the clear choice of the plant professinal'? Any help much appreciated.

agree  Helen Johnson: Green belt sounds good - maybe choice 'for' if from the point of view before the choice has been made. 'Choice of' if after the choice has been made if you see what I mean. I know it's genitive, but it can still be either for or of in English.
