Wood Products Trade and Foreign Markets. Annual Production, Consumption, and Trade Issue. Principal Countries Impacting U.S. Trade in Wood Products

摘要

The Forest Products Division has compiled production, consumption, and trade data on selected wood products for twenty eight significant countries. The data, collected from various sources, is not necessarily compatible with U.S. export and import data normally published in this circular, which comes from the U.S. Census Bureau. To supplement this data, the following perspectives offer a comparative snapshot of conditions in these countries, both in the general economy and the wood products sector. Economic information was extracted from the 1992 World Factbook; Central Intelligence Agency.
