Demand for spruce sawlogs is subdued and prices are under pressure.\u00a0The situation is different with hardwood: Here both demand and prices are increasing.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Austrian sawmill industry is still very well stocked with spruce sawlogs. Demand is correspondingly subdued. Prices are still under pressure. They were again reduced by \u20ac 3 to \u20ac 6 \/ m3. This fact, in combination with the previously announced revision shutdowns at the turn of the year as well as the reluctance to sign new contracts by customers, do not indicate a timely recovery in demand. In November, Spruce \/ fir roundwood (quality B, 2b) in Austria was sold between 100 and 115 \u20ac \/ cubic meter.<\/p>\n

Spruce\/fir price evolution in Austria (quality B, 2b)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In the pine segment there were regional price adjustments downward. Larch, on the other hand, maintains its attractive price level. Demand exceeds supply.<\/p>\n

At the beginning of the hardwood season, the trend of recent years continues: oak is in very brisk demand despite the rise in prices. However, increased demand can also be observed for red beech compared to the previous year. Regionally there were price increases here as well. Only the best qualities are required for all other types of hardwood.<\/p>\n

The demand for wood is and remains high, but the \"hysteria that we have too little wood\" has subsided, said Karl Grabmayr, Vice President of the Upper Austrian Chamber of Agriculture, and Franz Kepplinger, Chairman of the Upper Austrian Forest Association.\u00a0This is reflected in the trend towards falling prices.\u00a0The leading coniferous species, spruce, still achieves prices of 101 to 104 euros in Upper Austria, but in summer it was around ten euros more.<\/p>\n

The demand for softwood logs is currently very subdued for the time of year because the well-stocked wood (product) stocks are being dismantled and speculative market events are fading. Well-known sawmills in Upper Austria are currently asking for up to a third less round wood than normal.<\/p>\n

Kepplinger does not expect the entire value chain to flow again until 2022. The wood prices for forest owners have been high in recent years, but \"by no means exorbitantly high,\" says Grabmayr. Sustainable forest management \"has finally become possible again from an economic point of view\".<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
