ABSTRACT

The example of deploying the John Deere 1070 DT 3 harvester in the conditions of the Jeseníky Mountains demonstrates the dependences of the costs of the harvester technology on the conditions. There is an example of a quality designed forest transport network in this area which enables using modern harvesting-transportation technologies as well as using a cableway in terrains with high gradients.

Key words: harvester technologies, forest transport network, terrain gradients, timber storage, harvester outputs, harvesting costs.
