Financial Aspects of Woodlands

Knowledge of the financial aspects of growing and harvesting trees can be helpful in making decisions about your woodlot. Optimizing the value of your trees, selling when the market is good, and using a reputable logger generally will provide the greatest financial return. Chapter 4 in the Small Woodland Owner’s Handbook provides information on the financial factors related to harvests. Factoring financial conditions into your other considerations will result in more informed choices.
