Pulpwood and Timber Trends: Outlook to 2000 and Beyond, 1993 Pulping Conference Proceedings
Regional fiber supply, technological change, and product demands will shape regional timber supply and demand, determining the role of wood yards for pulpmills of the future. An economic model was developed recently to project competitive evolution of fiber markets and technological changes throughout the North American pulp and paper sector. The model simulates evolution of paper recycling and other technological changes among various product grades and regions. This paper describes long-range projections of relevant national trends and Southern timber markets to the year 2000 and beyond. The model projects evolution of supply and demand for pulpwood, roundwood and residues, for both hardwood and softwood. Implications are drawn regarding wood yards of the future.
