U.S. sawmills in the first six months of 2019 produced 17.602 billion board ft. (bbf) of softwood lumber, down 1.1% from output in the same period last year of 17.797 bbf.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Western U.S. sawmills accounted for 7.215 bbf of the six-month total, a decline of 2.4% from 7.393 bbf a year earlier, while output at southern U.S. sawmills slipped 0.1% to 9.560 bbf from 9.566 bbf.<\/p>\n
