Abstract

Directional felling is a technique that directs fallen trees in a predetermined direction to minimize damage to residual stands and understory plants and facilitate subsequent stages of timber handling. One of the felling techniques used in private forest harvesting was the rope-assisted directional felling technique. The study aimed to analyze and evaluate the effectiveness of the rope-assisted directional felling technique in private forests. The study was conducted in a private forest managed with an agroforestry system in Probolinggo, East Java. The number of sampled trees was 31 trees. The sampled trees were felled to the predetermined directions: to a stretched rope between two spar trees or the safe area. Felling errors, hang-ups, and the presence of barber chairs were used to assess the effectiveness of the rope-assisted felling technique. The average diameter of the felled trees was 23.4 cm and 20.8 m in height. The ropes-assist directional felling technique produced a hang-up tree of 19.35% of the total felled trees. Directional felling using ropes made fallen trees from close to the opposite direction of the natural felling direction. The ropes-assisted felling technique made all felled trees fall in the predetermined direction without producing barber chairs, but still causing hang-ups.

Abstract

Bucking is a forest harvesting stage that determines the quality of round wood. The bucking in private forests uses a chainsaw. Efficient bucking process is a prerequisite for sustainable forest harvesting. The study aimed to analyze the working time and productivity of bucking using a chainsaw in private forests. The study was conducted in private forests planted with an agroforestry pattern in the Probolinggo district, East Java. Working time measurements are carried out based on analysis of video images recorded during data collection in the field. The number of bucking work cycles observed was 31 cycles. Regression analysis was used to analyze the relationship between the logs' diameter and length and the bucking's productivity. The average working time for bucking was 7.09 minutes per cycle, consisting of 77.84% working time and 22.16% non-working time. The average productivity of bucking was 2.51 m3/hour. The study provided important empirical results regarding bucking's working time and productivity in private forests where the type of felled tree was sengon. Hopefully, the study results will be useful in planning and developing bucking techniques in private forests in Indonesia.

Abstract

Wood extraction using human power is a popular wood extraction technique in private forest harvesting in Indonesia. The method is used for transporting short logs over a short distance in flat or steep areas, which do not have adequate transport roads. The study aimed to analyze time consumption, productivity, and costs of wood extraction using human power in private forests. The study was conducted in a private forest in Probolinggo, East Java. The study was carried out in two cutting blocks. The first cutting block was 50 m from the landing, while the second was 250 m. The data collected included working time, productivity, and costs of wood extraction using human power. Working time data were obtained through video analysis, diameter, and tree height data were collected through direct measurements in the field, and cost data was obtained through direct measurements and interviews. Work time analysis was carried out for 73 cycles for cutting block 1 and 57 cycles for cutting block 2. The results showed that the workers spent most of their time on loaded trips, followed by empty travel, and for personal purposes. The lowest working time was placing and arranging the wood at the landing. The average wood extraction time per cycle was 4.49 minutes for a skidding distance of 50 m and 16.30 minutes for a skidding distance of 250 m. The results showed that the productivity of wood extraction using human power varied from 0.45 to 1.75 m3/hour. The cost of wood extraction using human power in private forests was IDR. 13.33/m3 for a skid distance of 50 m and IDR 51.85/m3 for a skidding distance of 250 m
