    As spring approaches firewood prices fall

    Stability continues in the wood market in February, with the price of firewood continuing a steady but slow decline. With the approach of the end of the heating season, the fall in the price of firewood is a logical result, and the trend is expected to continue in the upcoming months, with the price of firewood reaching its lowest point in May. Also, softwood sawlog prices remained unchanged in February, but the picture could change when the construction season resumes in the spring.

    Birch pulpwood prices are stabilizing

    Stability in the wood market characterizes the first month of this year, as wood prices have finally experienced only insignificant changes after the "roller coaster" of last year. Thanks to the atypically wet winter and reserves bought in the market fluctuations, there is more supply than demand and the energy wood prices are no longer continuing the downward trend they started.

    Wood prices from panic to a logical price

    At the beginning of 2022, there was a visible price increase in all assortments compared to 2021. The demand in the first quarters of the year was driven by panic and ignorance, but at the end of the year the situation normalized, with prices slowly stabilizing in line with the demand.

    The prices of pulpwood and firewood changed

    Energy wood prices are experiencing a drop in November, however, as the colder winter months in Latvia approach, the demand may increase for a while under the influence of the average air temperature. Softwood and birch pulpwood, like energy wood, will tumble and decline before the price stabilizes. Similarly, the prices of softwood saw logs also decreased in November, which directly depends on the demand.

    Changes in the energy wood prices

    As a result of the overproduction of energy wood, wood prices in Latvia experienced a slight and most likely, temporary price drop at the beginning of November. On the other hand, in October the average price of pulpwood decreased by 2%. The price drop also continued in the segment of thick and medium softwood saw logs, which is mainly related to the decrease in the volume of production of construction products, which according to the data of the Central Statistics Office has fallen by 12.5% in the last nine months in Latvia.
