Missouri Timber News Area
Missouri Timber Price Trends tracks market prices for Stumpage and Delivered Logs. Reports on the Stumpage Market are received from Missouri Department of Conservation Resource Foresters and private consulting foresters. Stumpage refers to timber sold on the stump and does not reflect delivered mill prices. Reports on the Log Market give delivered log prices and are compiled from reports submitted by sawmills and other wood processing plants. These reports should serve as a general guide to track stumpage and delivered log prices. Landowners should not use this report to replace a timber inventory and marketing assistance as methods of conducting a sale. Missouri Department of Conservation Resource Foresters will be able to provide information on current, local market conditions. Details of all private sales and delivered prices are kept confidential.
