The marketplace for timber is very unstructured when compared to farm products, factory goods, or the stock market. It is, therefore, quite difficult for anyone to enter this marketplace successfully without years of experience and preparation.
Typical forests produce a great diversity of products.
Species, size, and tree quality are all factors which influence timber values. It is important that sawtimber be sold as sawtimber if the forest owner is to be properly compensated for his timber. It is common to find trees of sawtimber size and quality being harvested as pulpwood with the owner being paid a fraction of the trees' real value when discretion is left to the logger or timber buyer.
