Technodiversity Glossary

Tree lengths that are stored at the forest road are chipped. 

Functiogram

Advantages

• At the roadside, one can use very large and powerful chipper that will offer the highest productivity and lowest cost
• Better quality than chipping of full trees

• The roadside landing must be large enough to accommodate the chipper, the accompanying chipvan and the stacks to be chipped.
  
• Stacks should not be contaminated during extraction and/or piling
  

• Most chipping operations are conducted at roadside.

Economic suitability

Example:

• machine costs without personal costs: 200,00 Euro/h
• personal costs per person: 35,00 Euro/h
• number of persons: 1
• in total: 235,00 Euro/h
• regression line minutes per tree
  • b₀ = 0,2
  • b₁ (tree volume) = 1,0
