COVER (.pdf) This report identifies and illustrates how individual states contribute to the economic well-being of the U.S. wood industry. Data are gathered into five tables and several graphs. Each table is followed by a list of terms that define each economic category and data source. The two main sources used were the USDA Forest Service 1997 RPA Assessment of the Nations Forests and the U.S. Census Bureau 1997 Economic Census, Manufacturing Industry Series. Industries are broken down into three categories, primary, secondary, and furniture manufacturing. As the scope of this report is limited to solid wood products, pulp and paper commodity trends are not included. This information provides key insights into the production and demand dynamics of the worlds largest solid wood marketplace.
