Análise do custo e do raio econômico de transporte de madeira de reflorestamentos para diferentes tipos de veículos

Abstract

The objective of this study was to establish the viable transport maximum distance for each type of wood transportation vehicle from the harvest areas to the consumption centers. Thus, reforestation cost and revenue data were used, as well as the load capacity of different types of vehicles used for wood transport. The application of economic criteria (VPL, TIR, CMP and BCPE) showed that the distances varied between 155 and 226 km, for the small truck and rodotrem (truck with two large trailers), respectively. It was concluded that rodotrem could reach a greater distance, with wood price being the factor most influencing maximum transport distance.
