For the secret foresters lurking out there, I have a school in NE Hampshire
situated in a scots pine plantation (approx 2 ha). Trees are approx 30 yrs
old & require (second) thinning. Sizes range from 15 - 40cm dbh(possibly
0.1 cub.m./av.pole - total guess though) & the general timber quality is
somewhat mediocre.
The question is, what is the current demand for pulpwood and would such a
site be of interest to a forestry contractor? Ok that was 2 questions.
And a bonus third question - does anybody have any forestry contacts down
this neck of the proverbial woods. Contact me off-forum if you want to keep
your forestry heretige quiet.
Many thanks,
