Matt,
If you read the postings in this thread, you will find out research done on value, production yields, quality and other variables related to a TATF investment.
The research presented here and to SBrunner is not and off-the-cuff series numbers, but endless hours of actual work asking involved parties in the lumber market, including plantations, buyers/sellers, distributors, and in some cases TATF itsef.
The posts include links to International Universities white papers, leaders in reforestation management, researchers at ITTO and UN-FAO and US official/private institutions and public and private enterpresises who provided information.
My research related to pricing, growth, production, timing and yield values was guided under FAO/ITTO standards and review by a well respected international forestry engineer.
The information posted here was consolidated to fit the format and easy read.

Can you post your questions here and have you ask the same questions to TATF?

By reading your postings, can I conclude, you are interested to know how long is going to take for the 93/94 Mix to be thinned?
You are interested to know how many years behind is Raleo in accepting wood from TATF, thus behind to distribute checks, the answer is also here by SBrunner related to Teak; that is the only chart provided by TATF.

The answer form international experts is posted here, and the evasive/no answer from SBrunner is also posted here.
