I bet woodland buyers are laughing now!

[Joe Pub1ic]

Small woodland owners buy for a whole other set of reasons too.

 

Wildlife fans, bushcrafters and/or DIY firewood people, many who get there own chainsaw tickets.

lots of people are investing for non timber benefits, Inheritance Tax, Sporting and increasing value of the land its self

I doubt whether there are any small wood owners who are in it for the money.

The cost of woodland at say £10k per acre, then insurance and maintenance costs, it is more of a money drain than an earner.

I did start to calculate the cost of each log that I produce for my own firewood, but quickly stopped as it was scary.

as long as you run you woods with extras (camping/wildlife/archery/paintball/etc) alongside but then wood is the 2nd venture.
