The effect of specification on selling prices of conifer sawlogs in South West England

J. R. ALDHOUS

Forestry Commission Edinburgh

The selling price of conifer logs sold in the period 1979–84 has been related in diminishing order of importance to: the diameter at breast height of trees from which the logs were derived, species, location, log grade and log minimum top diameter. Cash values are assigned to these aspects of valuation.

The relationship between price and diameter at breast height is linear. A generalised regression equation is given; this is then linked to the Forestry Commission index of softwood sawlog prices, and to conventional price-size curves used in economic appraisals.
