Timber Mart-South Summary, 1st Quarter, 2013

Source:  Chris Demers, UF/IFAS Forest Stewardship Coordinator

The information in the following table of average Florida timber prices was extracted from the Timber Mart-South first quarter 2013, released in April 2013. This information, compiled from many sources, is very useful for observing trends over time, but may not necessarily reflect current conditions at a particular location. In addition to general market conditions, prices vary from sale to sale depending on tract size and access; quality, quantity, and size of timber; distance to mills; and other market conditions. Landowners considering a timber sale would be wise to let a consulting forester help them obtain the best current prices.
