For more than 50 years, FORMEC has kept bringing together researchers, practitioners and government officials from different countries to share state-of-the-art knowledge about harvesting operations, with a focus on steep terrain. This year‘s meeting consists of a one-day pre-tour and a two day technical conference on new developments in forest engineering. The event is organized back-to-back with AUSTROFOMA: BOKU will organize optional transportation for those who wish to move few hours North and visit the iconic Austrian show.
The main conference topics are:
- Harvesting Systems
