Abstract
In order to improve the domestic forestry labor shortage and aging phenomenon, this research is expected to introduce high-performance forestry machinery in plantation forest and bamboo forest areas. The type of machine can be used for felling, bucking, logging, forest road maintenance and disaster rescue. Its functions can be applied as a reference for plantation management planning and combined use. At the same time, the logging operation of this type of machine adopts the high-heel type, which can reduce the impact on the environment, and develop environmentally friendly wood and bamboo logging operations, to achieve the purpose of sustainable forestry management.
