Ohio Timber Prices

2021 Timber Price Update:   

Lumber markets have been relatively untouched during the coronavirus outbreak. The U.S. Dept. of Homeland Security has deemed the wood products industry as an essential critical infrastructure workforce in our country’s response to solving the current crisis. The lumber demand has risen considerably in China as the outbreak has begun to decline there. India has become a major importer of U.S. hardwoods with a total volume of hardwoods exported to India showing an increase of 140%.  A positive construction outlook due to lower mortgage rates, as well as an overall lower supply have played into a recent rebound in lumber prices and should continue to increase in the coming months. Prices remain in high demand for walnut, oak, poplar and soft maple species.
