LUMBER POTENTIAL FOR CULL LOGS IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST

This study indicates that the economic feasibility of using cull logs for lumber manufacture is marginal except in times of extremely high lumber prices. Lumber price cycles and similar cycles in prices of products of pulp and plywood industries which compete for the cull log raw material tend to work against development of lumber processing capacity and residue reduction programs designed specifically for cull logs.
