About Stumpage prices by species

This page tracks public timber sales by the species they offer. Douglas-fir is charted as a monthly volume-weighted average of sold green sawtimber sales priced in MBF. Every other species a sale notice names is summarized in the species table, with its latest monthly average where one exists, and its sales are listed below. Federal CCF-priced sales are listed but not blended into an MBF average, since the units differ. Species is reported by the selling agency and is not always published, so a sale missing a species does not appear here.
