    Good footage, you can see they are removing a lot of bark with the head rollers pressure up so high. Bit of a waste of bark. The knives are sharp and working well for the branch removal. Once the needle has dropped off (couple of months) a forwarder and come pick the tops and larger branch trash and take to an in field chipper to create biomass for boilers. If they cant fetch a good price for the biomass or cant be bothered they heap up the trash and burn in situ which is a bit of a waste of energy.
