Felling is an important component of harvesting system. Motor-manually telling and processing was studied in Nowshahr in Northern forests of Iran. The elemental time study method was used. Felling and processing time predicting model was developed using stepwise regression. Diameter at the breast height (DBH) was significant factor affecting felling time. The volume and length of logs were significantly entered to the processing model. This paper presents the production and costs of felling and processing of log to lumber.
