Cost basis of timber

[Post to this category]

Hello, I recently sold some timber on land I had purchased several years ago. So i'm trying to figure my cost basis of the timber. In a University of Wisconsin Forestry Facts article it talks about a Site index that can help be understand my timber growth rate so I can 'reverse engineer' the volume of timber at the time of purchase. Can you help me with this Site Index or how I can ascertain my growth rate?

Thanks!
