This study was developed with information obtained from interviews with 71 farm owners fomented by Aracruz Celulose, in the State of Espírito Santo. The main objective of this study was to diagnose the forest crop and wood transportation in their farms, considering technical, economic, social and environmental aspects. Those farm owners were responsible for 92 forest contracts, in process of the forest crop and wood transportation, among October of 2004 and October of 2005, distributed in 22 municipal districts of the State and five regional deposits for delivery of the wood. The information was obtained by two specific questionnaires, one for the farm owners that outsourced the forest crop and another for those who done it by themselves. The area fomented per contract had 1,5 to 100,0 hectares, having up to 20 hectares in 76,1% of them and with mountainous relief in 59,8%. The results aimed differences among the areas of the five deposits of wood delivery, in terms of characteristics of the farms, the farm owners' profile and the forest contracts area. The forest crop and the wood transportation were done by an outsourced contractor in 64,1% of the forest contracts, and the main reasons were the lack of machines and equipments, time, specialized labors and truck. It was verified that the technology of forest crop wasn t the same in the areas of the five deposits of wood delivery, being also verified differences among the subsystems and methods used by the contractors and by the farm owners. In the forest crop done by the outsourced contractors, the main subsystem used was composed by: 1) logging, with the activities of felling, delimbing and bucking, was done with chainsaws; 2) mechanized forwarder operation; 3) manual loading; and 4) forest transportation was done with three axle trucks. In the forest crop done by the farm owners, the main subsystem used was composed by: 1) logging, with the activities of felling and bucking, was done with chainsaws and delimbing was done with manual tools (axes and machetes); 2) manual forwarder operations; 3) manual loading; and 4) forest transportation was done with two and three axles trucks. The main problems of the forest crop and wood transportation, identified by the farm owners, were the climate conditions, lack of specialized labors and the terrible conditions of the roads. Most of the farm owners that outsourced the forest crop didn't have difficulty in hiring a contractor. However, great part of those who did the forest crop by themselves had difficulty in hiring qualified labors, confirming the fact that this is one of the main reasons of the outsourcing and problems identified by the fomented farm owners.
