<\/span>China softwood log inventory has reduced to just over 3.7\u00a0m m3\u00a0and log demand has increased over the last month with port off-take of logs currently about 60k m3\u00a0per day.<\/p>\n

Towards the end of March, most exporters are selling A grade logs in the range 115-117 per JASm3.\u00a0\u00a0There are very recent reports of two exporters offering 113 USD per JASm3\u00a0for A grade logs.<\/p>\n

The Caixin China General Manufacturing PMI rose to 50.8 in February 2025 from 50.1 in the previous month, surpassing market expectations of 50.3. This marked the highest reading since last November, with output and new orders growing the most in three months. Foreign s ales also increased for the first time in three months.<\/p>\n

The Chinese government has maintained its economic growth target at approximately 5% and is implementing stimulus measures to mitigate the impact of rising U.S. tariffs. This proactive approach aims to sustain infrastructure projects and construction activities, thereby supporting continued demand for imported logs. \u200b Domestic pricing for logs in China is still weak with poor market sentiment.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
