Productivity, Costs and Residual Stand Damage of Timber Harvesting Methods in Scots Pine Stands with Extended Distance Between Skid Trails
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2025 at "Croatian journal of forest engineering"
DOI: 10.5552/crojfe.2026.4081
Abstract: In forest operations, economic advantages can be obtained by increasing the distance between the skid trails. This protects soil by reducing the compacted area, while at the same time increasing the productive timber ground area.… read more here.
