  1. Finnish wood measurement Matti Heikurainen Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry Matti Heikurainen 22.10.2008

  2. The volume of wood measuring in Finland 2007 (source Metsäteho) The proportions according to Metsätehos associates information (covering 85 % of total volumes) : private forests, standing sale s 32,2 milj. m3 private forests, sales in delivery cutting 4,8 milj. m3 state forests and company-owned forests 11,3 milj. m3 Total 48,3 milj. m3 Domestic market cuttings were 57,7 milj. m3, of which logs 28,0 milj. m3 and pulpwood 29,7 milj. m3.

  3. Methods in standing sales, private forests 2007 (32,2 milj. m3) (source Metsäteho) Matti Heikurainen 22.10.2008 11.7.2008 Timo Melkas 8

  4. Methods in scaling in delivery cutting - private forests 2007 (4,8milj.m3) (source Metsäteho) Matti Heikurainen 22.10.2008 11.7.2008 Timo Melkas 9

  5. Scaling methods, private forests 2007(standing and delivery sales,37,0 milj. m3) (source Metsäteho) Matti Heikurainen 22.10.2008 11.7.2008 Timo Melkas 10

  6. Proportions of different scaling methods - State forests and company-owned forests on extradition scaling 2007 (11,3 milj. m3) (source Metsäteho) Matti Heikurainen 22.10.2008

  7. Proportion of different scaling methods - total commercial roundwood fellings 2007 (48,3 milj. m3) (source Metsäteho) Matti Heikurainen 22.10.2008

  8. Scaling places - mills / road side 2007(source Metsäteho) • At the mill-woodyards 21,5 % (10,4 milj. m3) of which logs 34,5 % and pulpwood 65,5 %. • At the road side 3,8 % (1,8 milj. m3 ) of which logs 33,0 % and pulpwood 67,0 %. Matti Heikurainen 22.10.2008 13

  9. Proportion of different scaling methods - Private forests, standing sales 1993 – 2007 (source Metsäteho) Matti Heikurainen 22.10.2008

  10. Proportion of different scaling methods - Private forests, sales on delivery 1993 – 2007 (source Metsäteho) Matti Heikurainen 22.10.2008

  11. Proportions of wood measuring methods, 1993 – 2007 (source Metsäteho) Matti Heikurainen 22.10.2008

  12. Wood quantities and proportions of methods in 2007 (source Metsäteho) Matti Heikurainen 22.10.2008

  13. RECENT INNOVATIONS 1 On a way to be an official scaling method: • Scaling using the loader mounted weight scales The method fits well to harvesting-chain using terminals and harvesting-chain for small lots. Matti Heikurainen 22.10.2008

  14. RECENT INNOVATIONS 2 • Voluntary agreement on measuring energy-wood (29.2.2008) • Agreed and defined methods cover all normally used measuring methods for energy-wood (but not split billets, which already had agreed methods) • All main energy-wood users attended • Possible to develop to official statutory level Matti Heikurainen 22.10.2008

  15. RECENT INNOVATIONS 3 Reform of wood measurement legislation Existing critique: • Act and decrees...bureaucratic procedures • in some cases may slow the implementation of new methods • has the government a role to play in ”functioning markets” • energy-wood is still outside What next: • A background study will be conducted by METLA in 2009 (experiences by facts, lessons learned, what are the alternatives, what do the different stakeholders prefer... ) • A broadly-based working group in 2010 ? • New legislation in 2012 ??
