    rv0D AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS As recorded information on methods, production and costs of logging and transport in the developing world - and especially in tropical high forest - is scarce, one of the main purposes· of this manual is to focus attention on the analytic approach needed to quantify output and costs data. An important element of tropical high forest logging is examined: the influence of physical and economic conditions on production. Production and cost data are presented, as far as available information permits, for the most commonly used logging methods adaptable to this. particular situation.
