Alabama is a forest
Southern Yellow Pine is not the same quality as Douglas Fir and Ponderosa, Cedar and the other NW species. We are sitting on an oil farm and are not allowed to tap it.
You can bet the Chinese will not be putting tariffs on Doug Fir logs since they run them and sell it throughout Asia.
No, Alabama is a jungle! Have ever seen kudzu?
I only have a small patch of it that I’m aggressively fighting, but I have acre after acre of Japanese Honeysuckle, Chinese Private, Bradford Pear and other invasive species that cause me no end of work.
