Fully-mechanized wood harvesting originated in Scandinavia in the 1960s, and by the 1990s had become universally popular as the most productive and effective harvesting system.
Sustained technological development has generated increasingly sophisticated machines, also capable of negotiating difficult terrain and therefore suited for deployment in the Alpine Regions.
