TEXAS TIMBER PRICE TRENDS
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THIS REPORT?
Texas Timber Price Trends is a bi-monthly publication reporting average
prices paid for standing timber, commonly called the “stumpage price,” for the
two months listed in the report. Its purpose is to provide timely information
concerning timber market conditions in order to improve decision making and
foster fair transactions that benefit both buyer and seller and encourage
conservation of the timber resource. Market information is particularly
important to nonindustrial private landowners who are only infrequent
participants in this complex market.
VOLUME CONVERSION FACTORS
A specific conversion factor for each sale reported by the reporters is used for
price calculations when available; otherwise, the following average conversion
factors are used:
Sawlogs
MBF-International-1/4" X 0.74 = MBF-Doyle
MBF-Scribner X 0.78 = MBF-Doyle
MBF-USFS Scribner X 0.814 = MBF-Doyle
Pine - 8 Tons = 1 MBF-Doyle
Hardwood - 9 Tons = 1 MBF-Doyle
Pine Chip-N-Saw: 1 Cord = 2.625 tons
WHERE DOES THE DATA COME FROM?
Average stumpage prices published in this report are calculated from
actual timber sales as reported by as many as 60 cooperators active in the East
Texas timber market. Reporters include forest product companies, logging
contractors, consulting foresters, non-industrial landowners, financial
institutions, and federal agencies. Research has shown that a diversity of
reporters tends to reduce bias and improve the reliability of the price estimates.
Pulpwood
Pine - 2.7 Tons = 1 Cord
Hardwood - 2.8 Tons = 1 Cord
Pine - 81 Cubic Feet = 1 Cord
Hardwood - 80 Cubic Feet = 1 Cord
HOW ARE AVERAGE PRICES CALCULATED?
The calculation of average prices weighs each sale by the volume sold.
This is done to filter out the effect that the size of the sale has on the price paid,
thus providing a more consistent and meaningful average. The result is that the
average price reported is the average price paid per unit of volume, NOT per
the average timber sale.
The price per ton for each product category is calculated from the price
per ton as reported or using a specific conversion factor for each sale provided
by the reporters. When a specific conversion factor for each sale is not
available, an average conversion factor listed on page 8 is used instead.
Readers should note that volume to weight conversions vary depending on the
average diameter of the logs in the sale.

and is available at $2 per copy from your local TFS office, or through an annual
mail subscription of $10 per year. To subscribe, please send your request and

HOW CAN I USE THIS REPORT?
This report is intended to serve only as a guide to general price levels.
Individuals interested in selling timber can use this report to monitor market
trends and get a general idea of what their timber is worth. However, it should
not be used to judge the fair market value of a specific timber sale. The price
paid for a specific stand of timber will vary considerably due to such factors as:
size, species, and quality of timber; total volume and volume per acre; logging
conditions; distance to the mill; end product of manufacture; and current
demand and local competition for timber. Additionally, timber markets often
change rapidly and therefore past prices are not necessarily a reflection of
current market prices. We strongly recommend the use of a competitive bidding
process as the ultimate determinant of market price for any specific tract of
timber.

Texas Timber Price Trends
Prices Declined In Spite of Rains
Market Regions
The average stumpage prices of all products moved lower in the
Jan./Feb. period, compared to the previous two-month period. Pine
sawlog price went down slightly by less than $1/ton for the East Texas
region as a whole, to $38.19/ton ($305.03/MBF). But prices went up
for better sites with wet weather access. A year ago, the average stumpage price for pine sawlogs was $4/ton higher.
Red River
Stumpage price for pine pulpwood in East Texas for the Jan./Feb.
period declined slightly from the previous two-month period, to $6.43/
ton ($17.35/cord). “Mill winter inventories (were) holding (well).
Wood flow (was) good in spite of heavier than average rains”, commented a mill that is a large purchaser of pine pulpwood. Delivered
prices were also falling. In northeast Texas, future pulpwood prices are
expected to be stronger because of the increased demand from a new
OSB plant in Broken Bow, OK, opening in 2004. The $130 million dollar plant, owned by J. M. Huber Corporation, will have 160 employees
and produce 600 million square feet of panels annually.

Pine chip-n-saw stumpage price averaged $13.03/ton ($33.89/cord)
for the Jan./Feb. period, a $5.99/ton decrease from the previous bimonthly period. This is $1.81/ton lower than the same period a year ago.
All of the 39 sales were reported from the southeast Texas.

Pine Poles delivered price averaged $80-85/ton, reported by a utility
pole user. Poles are valuable timber products at premium prices in the
current market.
The average stumpage price of mixed hardwood sawtimber dropped
slightly to $14.14/ton ($117.71/MBF) from $15.51/ton ($143.02/MBF)
in the previous period, a 8.8% decline.
Hardwood pulpwood stumpage price also has declined. Compared
to the previous bi-monthly period, the average stumpage price dropped
by $0.44/ton, a 6.9% decrease. But it was still $0.76/ton higher than the
same period a year ago.
Lumber prices rose in the first quarter of 2004 to $348/MBF (2x4
#2), which was $48/MBF higher than the same period of last year.
Continued good demand for building materials in the Jan./Feb. period
has contributed to the higher lumber prices. Stumpage prices, however,
have remained weak.

Starting from January 1, 2004, the new legislation (Senate Bill 1646 of 2003)
requires stumpage prices to be in tons in the tax appraisal formula. Also, statewide
average stumpage prices (vs. northeast and southeast) will also be required for the
tax appraisal. Another important new change from this law is that small pine
sawtimber (chip-n-saw) is recognized as a timber product.

costs, other expenses and profits if any provided by the reporters.
2. Price is calculated from a specific conversion factor reported for each sale if available; otherwise, the average conversion factors listed on
page 8 are used. MBF = Thousand Board Feet. The DOYLE LOG SCALE is used for board foot measurements.
* Statewide data excludes U.S. Forest Service sales.

Texas Timber Price Trends
Prices Declined In Spite of Rains
Market Regions
The average stumpage prices of all products moved lower in the
Jan./Feb. period, compared to the previous two-month period. Pine
sawlog price went down slightly by less than $1/ton for the East Texas
region as a whole, to $38.19/ton ($305.03/MBF). But prices went up
for better sites with wet weather access. A year ago, the average stumpage price for pine sawlogs was $4/ton higher.

Stumpage price for pine pulpwood in East Texas for the Jan./Feb.
period declined slightly from the previous two-month period, to $6.43/
ton ($17.35/cord). “Mill winter inventories (were) holding (well).
Wood flow (was) good in spite of heavier than average rains”, commented a mill that is a large purchaser of pine pulpwood. Delivered
prices were also falling. In northeast Texas, future pulpwood prices are
expected to be stronger because of the increased demand from a new
OSB plant in Broken Bow, OK, opening in 2004. The $130 million dollar plant, owned by J. M. Huber Corporation, will have 160 employees
and produce 600 million square feet of panels annually.

Pine Poles delivered price averaged $80-85/ton, reported by a utility
pole user. Poles are valuable timber products at premium prices in the
current market.
The average stumpage price of mixed hardwood sawtimber dropped
slightly to $14.14/ton ($117.71/MBF) from $15.51/ton ($143.02/MBF)
in the previous period, a 8.8% decline.
Hardwood pulpwood stumpage price also has declined. Compared
to the previous bi-monthly period, the average stumpage price dropped
by $0.44/ton, a 6.9% decrease. But it was still $0.76/ton higher than the
same period a year ago.
Lumber prices rose in the first quarter of 2004 to $348/MBF (2x4
#2), which was $48/MBF higher than the same period of last year.
Continued good demand for building materials in the Jan./Feb. period
has contributed to the higher lumber prices. Stumpage prices, however,
have remained weak.

TEXAS TIMBER PRICE TRENDS
WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THIS REPORT?
Texas Timber Price Trends is a bi-monthly publication reporting average
prices paid for standing timber, commonly called the “stumpage price,” for the
two months listed in the report. Its purpose is to provide timely information
concerning timber market conditions in order to improve decision making and
foster fair transactions that benefit both buyer and seller and encourage
conservation of the timber resource. Market information is particularly
important to nonindustrial private landowners who are only infrequent
participants in this complex market.
VOLUME CONVERSION FACTORS
A specific conversion factor for each sale reported by the reporters is used for
price calculations when available; otherwise, the following average conversion
factors are used:
Sawlogs
MBF-International-1/4" X 0.74 = MBF-Doyle
MBF-Scribner X 0.78 = MBF-Doyle
MBF-USFS Scribner X 0.814 = MBF-Doyle
Pine - 8 Tons = 1 MBF-Doyle
Hardwood - 9 Tons = 1 MBF-Doyle
Pine Chip-N-Saw: 1 Cord = 2.625 tons
WHERE DOES THE DATA COME FROM?
Average stumpage prices published in this report are calculated from
actual timber sales as reported by as many as 60 cooperators active in the East
Texas timber market. Reporters include forest product companies, logging
contractors, consulting foresters, non-industrial landowners, financial
institutions, and federal agencies. Research has shown that a diversity of
reporters tends to reduce bias and improve the reliability of the price estimates.
Pulpwood
Pine - 2.7 Tons = 1 Cord
Hardwood - 2.8 Tons = 1 Cord
Pine - 81 Cubic Feet = 1 Cord
Hardwood - 80 Cubic Feet = 1 Cord
HOW ARE AVERAGE PRICES CALCULATED?
The calculation of average prices weighs each sale by the volume sold.
This is done to filter out the effect that the size of the sale has on the price paid,
thus providing a more consistent and meaningful average. The result is that the
average price reported is the average price paid per unit of volume, NOT per
the average timber sale.
The price per ton for each product category is calculated from the price
per ton as reported or using a specific conversion factor for each sale provided
by the reporters. When a specific conversion factor for each sale is not
available, an average conversion factor listed on page 8 is used instead.
Readers should note that volume to weight conversions vary depending on the
average diameter of the logs in the sale.

HOW CAN I USE THIS REPORT?
This report is intended to serve only as a guide to general price levels.
Individuals interested in selling timber can use this report to monitor market
trends and get a general idea of what their timber is worth. However, it should
not be used to judge the fair market value of a specific timber sale. The price
paid for a specific stand of timber will vary considerably due to such factors as:
size, species, and quality of timber; total volume and volume per acre; logging
conditions; distance to the mill; end product of manufacture; and current
demand and local competition for timber. Additionally, timber markets often
change rapidly and therefore past prices are not necessarily a reflection of
current market prices. We strongly recommend the use of a competitive bidding
process as the ultimate determinant of market price for any specific tract of
timber.
