Modernization of skidding and primary removal of wood in the Vologda Region through the use of relevant domestic solutions

In the paper on the basis of the analysis of technical indicators and the aggregates used of the applied and introduced forest machinery (multi-operational forest machines) a study was carried out on the efficiency of variants in the sorting of logs during the implementation of technological operations in skidding and primary timber transportation under typical natural and production conditions Totemsky Forestry - a branch of the company SAU Forestry of the Vologda region “Vologda Forestry Association” (Vologda region, Russian Federation).
