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

Keywords: Resource production, timber harvest, grazing levels, lumber production
