Risk of fire, and other natural disasters

The U.S. Forest Service has kept very good records of the actual number of timberland acres affected by any of the natural risks such as fire, wind, ice, disease, etc. and the risk of having any one acre damaged by a natural risk is less than 0,04%percent. That is on all timberlands. On intensively managed lands, such as those ecobosques manages for its clients, the risk is much less.

Additionally, the risk varies by region.   This is because of a very good detection and suppression system, the natural topography of the land, and excellent road systems and all year humid rainforests.
For more than three decades timberland has been very competitive with stock market returns and has out-performed both fixed income and conventional real estate.  Timberland portfolios are expected to generate long-term returns in the range of 6% – 10% above inflation.  Strong returns allow timberland investments to meet portfolio diversification needs while enhancing overall portfolio performance.
