Summary: | The paper analyses the business behavior of wood felling companies when taking part in
wood auctions for timber from protection forests owned by the Romanian state. The research took
place between 2012 and 2014 in the Brasov – Covasna area; it took into account all the targeted
auctions organized by the local forestry governing bodies. In this first part of the paper we will present
the results for Brasov County (4 large autumn and spring auctions). It is the first analysis of this kind in
this particular area. Aside from highlighting all the technical aspects of auctions, we have applied (for
the first time as well) a special questionnaire for the participating companies. The main conclusions
drawn from processing the data and the answers from the survey are presented in the paper. The
foremost aspect is that the behavior of the companies differs in these situations from regular behavior
in general auctions |
