Abstract
The article presents the results of a study of the impact of forest machinery movers on the soils of logging areas. During the study, various indicators were measured and analyzed, such as the angle of inclination, soil porosity and particle density, as well as a comparison of different types of propulsion: wheeled, semi-tracked and tracked. The results showed that wheeled vehicles have a significant impact on these indicators. The passage of tracked vehicles has less impact on soils, compared with wheeled and semi-tracked types of forest vehicles. These results indicate a potential disturbance of the soil structure and a change in its physico-chemical properties as a result of the use of forest machinery. The results of the study are important for understanding the impact of technology on the ecological state of forest ecosystems and for developing effective strategies for sustainable forest management. Further research in this area will make it possible to refine these results and determine the optimal methods of using forest machines with minimal impact on soils.
