The Cost index of forest machinery has been revised and renamed

The Cost index of forest machinery has been revised and at the same time its name has been changed to Cost index of forest machinery and vehicles, which better describes the content of the statistics. The weight structures for forest machines, forest tractors and felling machines, log truck combinations used to transport timber, and wood chippers have been updated to correspond with the structure of costs in 2010. At the same time, the base year of the index has been changed to 2010=100. The total indices with base years 2005=100 and 1990=100 will be continued by chaining. The compilation of the index with 2000 as the base year has been discontinued.
