Transport och terminalhantering av plantor på Södra

Abstract: This study has been carried out at Södra´s 31 local forestry districts and within six plant terminals. The production and sale of seedlings at Södra is managed in collaboration with ”Södra Odlarna”. Approximately 35 million plants are cultivated each year, providing Södra´s members with a wide choice of high quality plants. The seedlings are nurtured at nurseries before transferred to plant terminals where they are stored and watered. Plant terminals vary in appearance and function. Methods of storing typically occur in containers or storing tanks. Recent years there is an increase in the volume of plant production inevitably due to the storms “Gudrun” and “Per”. However, volumes are predicted to stabilise within a few years.
