One row per region, showing that region’s freshest published cell. A region with more than one stage or tier has all of them on its own page.
Reading the spread
These regions are not directly comparable. They span 4 product stages and 2 market tiers, which means a lower number on this page can be a standing tree priced against another region’s finished sawlog, or a bulk price list against a value-timber auction. Those are different markets, not a discount. Compare within a stage and a tier, or read why the tier matters first.
The index does not publish a single national or European average for european beech, and would not be more useful if it did. Averaging a Bavarian submission auction with a Bulgarian state price list produces a number that describes no market anyone can buy in.
