peer agreement (net): +5from (the) stump (standing timber) Explanation: It is important to realize that there are numerous costs associated with getting timber from the stump to the market. A skilled laborer cuts the tree; another skilled laborer in an $80,000 machine drags (skids) the log to a truck; another skilled laborer in a $30,000 machine loads the log onto a truck; a driver in a $100,000 truck hauls the log to the mill yard where it must be unloaded. All these costs, plus a profit margin must come out for a tree to pay its way to the sawmill. The farther the tree is located from the market, the more difficult it is to extrapolate a stumpage value. http://www.orps.state.ny.us/assessor/manuals/vol6/forestry/f... Every dollar spent to get the log from stump to market is one less dollar available to pay for stumpage. Poor terrain and inaccessibility makes high-value timber worth less than under optimal conditions, and makes low-value timber almost worthless to the buyer if it does not cover the costs of hauling it out of the woods aem.cornell.edu/outreach/extensionpdf/eb0501.pdf -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 35 mins (2009-02-20 19:00:52 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hier nochmals der link :)) http://aem.cornell.edu/outreach/extensionpdf/eb0501.pdf |
