- W2593375330 abstract "The goal of this research project was to evaluate the benefits of agricultural and forestry machinery standardization amongst companies and other stakeholders in Finland. The research project was carried out by a questionnaire study to enterprises and other organizations involved. Some questionnaires were also sent to European standardization bodies. The results of the study showed that the benefits of standardization have been realized in the agricultural and forestry machinery sector, and manufacturers acknowledge the important role standardization plays in their work. It was established through the questionnaire that standards when adopted systemically place companies on the benefiting end and to some extent cause positive competition on the agricultural and forestry machinery market. All respondents agreed that safety standards clarify safety requirements of products and safety standards reduce accidents when machines and implements are used. Furthermore, 89 % of respondents were of the opinion that standards help in protecting the environment. The present way of organizing and financing agricultural and forestry machinery standardization in Finland was acknowledged by almost all the responding companies to be very convenient and yield good results. However, there are certain problems that companies face when using standards. These shortcomings must be improved. The companies and organizations pointed out that language and therefore the understanding of the technical contents of standards was a typical problem for most of them. A lot of companies will benefit, if there are translations of proposed standards during the inquiry stage rather than only when the standard are published. Generally, there is very low participation in standardization by smaller (SME) agricultural and forestry manufacturing companies in Finland. Almost all of the companies who stated that they do not have the necessary resources for obtaining information of the standards, were SME’s. In terms of standardization activity in the sector, SME’s must be encouraged to take active part in standardization work. About 70 % of the respondents of the questionnaire indicated that standardization is slow. The standardization organizations have already noticed this and for example changes have been made in CEN concerning standards preparation time. The results of this study affect probably the future competitiveness of the agricultural and forestry machinery industry both on the domestic and export markets.
