This week, two FIRE-RES project partners joined efforts in Odèn and Viladecavalls (Catalonia) to organise two days of practical demonstrations showcasing small and light forestry machinery.
Developing one the several Innovation Actions that are foreseen in the project, the Forestry Science and Technology Center of Catalonia (CTFC) and the National Research Council of Italy (CNR) held demonstrations to introduce forestry companies to a new generation of versatile machines designed for cutting, processing, and extracting trees from forests. Notable for their compact size, these machines offer cost-effective solutions for acquisition, maintenance, and transportation.
