Natural Seasoning 

  • It is difficult to reduce the moisture content below 15–18%
  • It is simple and economical.
  • It is more liable to attack of insects and fungi.
  • It requires more space for stacking.
  • It is a slow process.
  • It gives stronger timber.

Artificial Seasoning

  • The moisture content can be reduced to any desired level.
  • It gives weaker timber.
  • It is a quick process.
  • It requires less space for stacking.
  • It is less liable to attack of fungi.
  • It is expensive and highly technical.
