The price for logs in China has risen steadily this year on the back of anticipated increased demand after the Chinese New Year. The price for A-grade logs is now above 160 USD per JAS m3.\u00a0<\/sup><\/p>\n

The inventory of pine logs at the 23 main log ports in China had dropped in January but is now back to around 4.5m m3<\/sup>\u00a0and daily offtake has started again after the Chinese New Year.<\/p>\n

Log supply from NZ remains lower than expected. The previously mentioned wet weather and cyclone in New Zealand slowed the rate of harvest. This combined with debarker issues at two ports has caused several log vessels (spread across the array of log exporters) to wait for cargo or sail without being full. This is usually quite rare. Log supply from New Zealand is also likely to be reduced over March and April as workers become ill and\/or are required to isolate, as New Zealand deals with the expected peak of the Covid Omicron wave.<\/p>\n

This constrained log supply should maintain price pressure in China, as alternative supply options are very limited. There is less spruce arriving from Europe, and Russia banned log exports from the start of 2022. Although Russia is allowed to export logs from species such as Birch which they regard as low value.<\/p>\n

In the last quarter of 2021, China implemented new rules on the importation of Southern Yellow Pine logs (SYP) from the United States to combat phytosanitary concerns. Many exporters have therefore moved supply to different markets with supply reducing about 50% over the quarter.<\/p>\n

Supply from Uruguay has pivoted between China and India, and Quarter 4 2021 was the first time that break-bulk\u00a0supply from South America to India exceeded supply to China.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
