Does it matter what these prices are vis-a-vis people who bought TATF trees? They can't access their trees, get no response to their requests for status, cannot locate the TATF office nor owner of the farms.
This is an example of a current report I received from one of the tree-owners who was in the area, trying to get information to report to others:
"Nothing to report from CR, because nothing is happening. As you have stated contacting the company is impossible, the farms are not being maintained, many are not readily assessable from the paved highways, even if one knew the exact location. The company debt at the Caja seguro social remains unchanged. The people I talked to in the Quepos area didn't even know of the farms, so the employment at the farms is not significant to the local economy. It appears the teak boom of the ninety's has evolved into the teak bust of the new 21st century, having little influence for the local population. There is no local market for juvenile teak of a scale that could provide hope for investors, if they could get their teak down off the mountain to market, which they can't. Sorry there isn't better news, or any news."
