Timber plantation yields mark South Australia forest report
Special timber data show South Australia's forests yielding over 80 million super feet in a year with softwood production surging 10 million feet aided by logging on burned areas. State mills processed 23 million softwood feet for local use while 28 million feet went to private industries. Hardwood yields appear low, prompting questions about plantation viability. Dispatch data from 1946 report also notes Pacific timber exports topping 470 million feet with the United Kingdom receiving the largest share. Swedish export quotas distribute timber to multiple European and foreign markets. Portable small sawmills prove effective in NSW and SA for remote forest processing.
