Default 1 acre harvest

I'm a trustee for ~135 acres of conservation land, managed as a tree farm. When building material prices started rapid growth, we considered accelerating the harvest schedule. The advice from our forester was that the high cost of building materials was mostly driven at the retail level and land owners were not seeing increased profits. I don't think there's money to be made harvesting one acre at a time, but the timbering contractor will get a day's pay.
