I heard recently that because home building is down, the saw mills aren't running much. And that because wood pellets come from saw dust, production of pellets is down. My question involves the debate that rages between burning hardwoods or taking the time to process softwoods, like pine. If most of the milling at saw mills involves softwoods, like pine and douglas fir, does this mean that wood pellets are mainly comprised of dust from these softwoods? Kind of makes burning pine logs more valuable. Like to know what others think.
