The strong decline in Oak log exports to China in August recovered slightly in October, but exports are nearly 47% below last year's figures. Looking at the period of January to October, exports show still an increase of 10% compared to the same period in 2010. The speculation that significant Oak volumes were shipped via Denmark to Asia seems to be confirmed. Denmark amounts decreased in proportion to increases to Asia.

The following average prices for the most important destinations of German Oak logs can be calculated from the October figures: Denmark € 180/m³,(I-X/2011: € 176/m³), Netherlands € 114/m³ (128), Belgium € 465/m³ (142), China € 149/m³ (151).
