This report describes the methodology and the results of a biomass recovery trial performed in Northern New Brunswick in blocks harvested by two different cut-to-length systems (2-machine and 3-machine systems). A pre-harvest inventory was carried out in the test cut blocks and detailed productivity studies were conducted on the harvesting operations and on the grinding of the roadside harvest residues in the fall of 2022.
This report was made possible through the support of the New Brunswick Government and the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency.
