O-02　スマート林業による事業採算性向上効果に関する研究

抄録

In recent years, a lot of support and research have been carried out for the purpose of reducing forestry costs. The purpose of this study was to clarify the economic effect of mechanization and advanced ICT system on the entire flow in the forestry flow including forest survey, thinning, main cutting, and timber distribution flow. As a result, it was found that the production cost of thinning was higher than the profit as a woody biomass fuel material even if mechanization and “smart” distribution using demand matching system were introduced. However, by introducing both mechanization and “smart” distribution, overall profits increased by about 34 million yen per year.
