    2024 June timber market price overview

    In the first half of 2024, Latvia's timber market has experienced several significant trends and changes in wood prices, reflecting both seasonal and economic factors. Summer is the construction season, typically influencing the prices of softwood sawlogs, which tend to rise during this period. The recent decrease in interest rates after a significant pause also potentially signals a positive increase in softwood sawlog prices.

    The price of softwood pulpwood has risen to 74 to 75 euros per cubic meter. This increase has significantly impacted the cost of softwood tare logs, which have now reached 77 to 78 euros per cubic meter. This trend illustrates a usual correlation between the prices of pulpwood and tare logs. Positive trends can also be observed in the softwood sawlog market. The softwood sawlog price has reached 85 EUR/m3 on average, but in some places even 96 EUR/m3, as well as the demand for conifer logs has risen.

    Sawlog prices in the decline due to construction
