Title: determining market value of logs
Post by: brdmkr on April 04, 2006, 11:13:32 PM

Is there a web site that post current market value of logs by species? Actually, that is not the real question as I know these sites exist. What I haven't been able to find is market value for my area GA, FL, AL. Can anyone offer any assistance? I am particularly interested in what mills are giving for SYP saw logs.

Thanks for any help you can give.

Few states have good info...most have info not worth printing.

Thanks Larry.

I checked out that site, but there was nothing there for this part of the country. I may have to call a few of the local mills and ask what they are paying.

Maybe check with your State DNR or local Conservation District Forester for such info.
