U S Timber Production Trade Consumption And Price Statistics 1965 2005

This report includes data for 1965 through 2005. Data for the years prior to 1965 can be found in earlier reports in the series. Since the last publication of this series in 2003 (data compiled through 2002), many agencies have discontinued the collection of various data. This change is indicated on the tables, where applicable. Some data were derived from mathematical calculations and some show conversions from different units of measurement. Throughout the tables and text, billion denotes 109. The references cited in the text and in the tables are listed separately. Text references are listed in literature cited. The sources for data in the tables are listed in an annotated bibliography, which is cross-referenced to the tables.

AbstractThis report presents annual data but is published every 2 years. The data present current and historical information on the production, trade, consumption, and prices of timber products in the United States. The report focuses on national statistics, but includes some data for individual states and regions and for Canada. The data were collected from indus-try trade associations and government agencies. They are intended for use by forest land managers, forest industries, trade associations, forestry schools, renewable resource or-ganizations, individuals in the major timber producing and consuming countries of the world, and the general public. A major use of the data is tracking industry production and consumption trends over time.
