¶ Skogforsk detection of forked trees project
.jpg)
Description: Forked trees should be harvested during thinning, as they can be handled efficiently in multi-tree processing. Waiting until final felling greatly increases time and leads to loss of timber volume.
The objective of our study was to analyse how the presence of codominant stems and/or double crowns affects harvester time consumption. The study was conducted in Sweden in 2022, involving two operators and two large harvesters. The 45-year-old Pinus contorta Douglas ex Loudon-dominated stand was clearcut during the study.
