My company has recently acquired a large tract of land that we plan to clear-cut for commercial use. What is the most efficient way to do this?

Clear-cutting is a method of land management in which forestry contractors or logging crews methodically and evenly remove trees in an area to the designated target retention level. The most efficient way to accomplish this is usually through the use of mechanized equipment such as skidder units, harvesters and fellers. This type of system enables operators to work quickly, reduce operator fatigue, maximize cost efficiency and minimize damage to other standing timber. It’s important that before you initiate any clear-cutting projects on your newly acquired tract of land that you understand state guidelines regarding regulations for timber harvesting, including any buffer zones or conservation measures that are required.

The most efficient way to clear-cut a tract of land for commercial use is by using a forestry bioproducts processor. This machinery includes harvesters, feller bunchers, forwarders, cable yarders, logloaders and debarkers. The processor can also include equipment like excavators, bulldozer-mounted saws and wheel loaders to move the timber in the most efficient manner. Before undertaking any land clearing activity however, be sure you’re working with appropriate environmental assessments and that all applicable local regulations are met.
