    Okay okay I know Teagasc list Coilte's sawlog prices but I'm
    looking for a detailex species breakdown.

    For example economically without using a discount rate
    this should work out very similar

    Sitka on a 40 year rotation fetching €60m3 for sawlog
    against
    Douglas Fir on a 50 year rotation fetching €75m3 for sawlog

    Tough to find info on hardwoods that's not UK sourced.

    Any help much appreciated

    No takers ��

    This was spurred by climate change and the thought of
    planting more flexible species.

    It is possible we get our act together but just incase Sitka's could be on it's last rotation as the majority
    forestry species in Ireland
