In October, the average price for the main assortment spruce sawlogs B/ C 2a-3b rose sharply. The reason are two big auctions in East Tyrol, for which a very good price was achieved. In North Tyrol, on the other hand, the B / C price has remained almost stable. Also, the volume is much lower in North Tyrol, only about a quarter of the total of Tyrol.
