Methods based on human, animal and machine power is used for extracting of industrial wood raw material in forestry. In this study, optimum extracting model was planned for wood raw material considering technical aspect. The study was carried out within the boundaries of Çardak, Çivril, Elmaözü, and Göldağ Forest Enterprise Chief in Denizli Regional Directorate of Forestry.
The main material of the study were 1/25000 scale topographic maps, maps of stand types of management plans, forest road network plans and maps. Slope is the one of predominant factors for determining extracting method. Thus Digital Terrain Model of the workspace (DTM) was established and maps of slope classes have produced from this model. Optimum extracting model of compartments of study areas was planned considering technical aspect. Additionally applied extraction methods and planned optimum extraction methods also were compared in the study areas.
At the end of this study, human power, animal power, and farm tractor based extraction methods were found highest rates in Çardak Forest Enterprise Chief. Forest tractor, skyline, and log-line extraction methods were found highest rates in Elmaözü Forest Enterprise Chief. When applied extraction methods and planned optimum extraction methods were compared, the highest percentage (31%) was found to overlap in Çardak Forest Enterprise Chief.
