U.S. sawmills produced 20.678 billion board ft. (bbf) of softwood lumber in the first seven months of 2018, an increase of 5.2% from 19.656 bbf a year earlier.<\/em><\/p>\n

According to the Western Wood Products Assn.\u2019s latest Lumber Track report, Western U.S. sawmills accounted for 8.588 bbf of the seven-month total - up 7.1% from 8.021 bbf in the previous year, while sawmills in the southern U.S. contributed 11.115 bbf, a gain of 3.8% from 10.704 bbf a year earlier.<\/p>\n

Production in July was 2.905 bbf, up 5.4% from 2.757 bbf in July 2017, but down 2.8% from 2.990 bbf in the previous month.<\/p>\n
