Historic Resource Production from USDA Forest Service Northern and Intermountain211 Region Lands

摘要

This paper presents long-term resource production from National Forests in the211u001eNorthern and Intermountain Regions, Regions 1 and 4, respectively. A historical 211u001edata series of timber harvest and grazing levels on National Forests and lumber 211u001eproduction and prices for these regions is developed. Significant trends within 211u001ethe data set are examined. A simple model based on derived demand concepts is 211u001etested to identify periods of possible structural change within the stumpage 211u001emarkets for the Region 1 data. This information provides a baseline data set of 211u001einterest to policymakers and researchers involved in analyzing the long-term 211u001eresource production for Regions 1 and 4.
