Learn about the business of logging with Benjamin F. Hoffman’s classic book, How to Improve Logging Profits, now available as a downloadable PDF or epub (for e-readers) for free. It was originally compiled from a series of Northern Logger articles in the '90s to assist loggers in business management, especially considering the evolving challenges in costs and market complexities. The 2024 edition has been updated, revised, and converted to a digitized format thanks to a Farm Credit Northeast AgEnhancement Grant.
Farm Credit Northeast AgEnhancement supports programs, projects, and events that are intended to strengthen agriculture, commercial fishing, and the forest products sector in the Northeast. This program is a combined effort of Farm Credit East and CoBank.
