Title: Stumpage Price Publications
Post by: VT_Forestry on January 27, 2010, 08:02:48 AM
Just wondering what you guys in the Southeast use for a stumpage summary.  At work we are using Timber Mart-South, which comes out every quarter.  Is there something that is considered to be better/more accurate/cheaper?  I think it costs around $200/yr for the subscription.  Any and all suggestions welcome!

Timber Mart South is pretty good for general market dynamics and following trends.  Forest2Market is good in areas where they have an adequate number of reporters.  F2M is useless in Virginia due to a lack of reporters.  Random Lengths is one of the reporters on lumber prices.  It is pretty good for following trends.

 I use the southern new england stumpage report from UMass. but they not good at updates. Also I check prices in the Saw Log Bullitin and then decide what it cost to cut an skid,then deduct cost.
