Horse logging
Horse logging is the use of horses or mules in forestry. In the modern industrialized world, it is often part of sustainable forest management.
Horses may be used for skidding and other tasks.
Net net and gross production rates using horse logging in a Romanian study were of 2.63 m3/h and 1.44 m3/h.
In the United Kingdom, there were three people employed as horse loggers in the 1980s but the number increased to 15 by 2009 with up to 1,000 part-time employed by that work.
Horses can efficiently extract a single damaged tree from a forest without roadbuilding required for powered vehicles. The technique can be more efficient than using power equipment, considering the cost of transportation and fuel, especially on smaller privately held forest parcels.
