Multi-Tree Handling

Multi-Tree Handling

Young forests must be managed today so that they can be enjoyed in the future.
Forests are a tremendous resource for power generation that grows and renews itself continuously when managed correctly. This ideal resource for bioenergy may be introduced to the production of renewable energy to replace fossil fuels.

Energy wood is harvested from the forests using low-emission machinery with low energy consumption - the energy consumption of the whole chain of production is less than 3% of the energy content of the biomass transported.

Multi-tree handling may be used to increase grapple yield significantly, but always in accordance with the density and size of the trees that are to be handled. Since the machine's scale cannot measure multiple trees handled together, the wood is measured by weight. The processed trunks are counted automatically.

John Deere's four-roller grapples have been pioneers in multi-tree handling. Standard harvester heads can be modified to suit energy wood harvesting.
