Yes it is. Growth/yield tables are easily accessed for each area. They come with density per age graphs. Soil types are readily accessible for each area, which show potential growth for each species in that specific area. They are normally as precise as 10-50ft.
Just have to figure out what type of timber, contracts, where to sell it, and what loggers to put on the property. Sometimes you want slow loggers and sometimes you want fast loggers. Just all depends, but the tree information is already taken care of.

well, then you have to figure out ways to maximize the potential of your site, and plan accordingly using the proper seedlings, proper site prep, proper competition control, proper fertilization, thinning schedules and densities, and on and on
growth and yield tables are nice tools, but I don't grow trees on paper.
