The TMS collects price data through quarterly surveys of a representative sample of timber market participants in eastern Australia. All quarterly TMS reports contain price movement information for softwood timber, panels and engineered wood products. The June and December quarter editions also include price movement information for hardwood timber products surveyed over a six-month period. The TMS is prepared by Indufor and funded by eight major Australian forestry organisations: Forestry Corporation of NSW; Green Triangle Forest Products; Hancock Victorian Plantations; HQPlantations; OneFortyOne Plantations; the Queensland Government Department of Agriculture and Fisheries; Southern Cross Forests; and Sustainable Timber Tasmania.
