Description: Reports average stumpage and roadside prices and their relative rates of change for timber and logs in New Hampshire for 1964 to 1983. Stumpage and roadside prices increased overall from 1964 to 1983. Roadside prices increased at a slower rate than stumpage prices. Real sawtimber prices increased for all species except hemlock during the period. Red oak prices increased at the greatest rate. Hardwood-pulpwood stumpage prices increased over the study period while spruceifir and other softwood- pulpwood stumpage prices decreased in real terms. For the 20- year period, harvest cost for sawtimber decreased in real terms while the harvest cost for pulpwood increased less than 1 percent.
