Don't listen to what people want or like. As I said, tree selection is not for one's lifetime : it's a gift for the next generation.
If you're approaching landowners by telling them they can turn a profit in X years, you are doing it wrong. If your motivation is greed, then you set yourself up for failure, first because price forecast 25 years in the future are absolutely idiotic and meaningless (as we have seen in the past two years), then because trees are very complex organisms that take a very long time to grow. By modifying their genome you expose them to potential rejection by their peers and more things that you will discover in two decades. And also getting bared from planting them in Europe.
So, get your marketing straight : no more profit, and grow what you want. Take those carbon credits home, that's the most profitable thing you can do.
