New insights into mechanised planting productivityFriday 21 Mar 2025 Forme Consulting Group, in collaboration with Pan Pac Forest Products, and with support from the Precision Silviculture Programme, studied the machine productivity of the PlantmaX. The study looked at planting efficiency, downtime and utilisation through time and motion studies.A short report on the findings is available showing the potential and has led to a better understanding of PlantmaX’s limitations across our more rugged, broken terrain with short runs in NZ. As a result, we are now working on an adaption of the planting kit (area adapt to a new base machine highlighted in yellow), which we will share as the project develops. ![]() Source: Precision Silviculture New Zealand (via LinkedIn) |
