Excellent 23 Year Forestry Study Shows Big Returns
A 23 year study by the Southern Forest Experiment Station in New Orleans shows well managed small tracts yield strong long term returns. One good 40 acre tract produced 316,518 board feet of logs and 18,149.22 dollars from 23 harvests, while a poorer 40 acre tract yielded 134,066 board feet and 10,260.10 dollars. The report notes many owners fail to achieve the full potential of their land despite Southern forests dominating shortleaf loblolly pine country.
