Third Quarter 2007 Update
Wood Demand Report database captures 285.5 million tons of annual wood flow in the U.S. South. This includes over 230 million tons of pine and hardwood log flows and 50 million tons of woods-direct and residual chip flows.
Total coverage currently available for North and South Georgia, North and South Louisiana, South Mississippi, and Southeast Texas. Partial coverage available for Alabama, South Arkansas, and North Florida. Future markets include North and South Carolina.
FORISK's Wood Demand Report tracks actual wood receipts and demand trends by product for timber markets across the Southeast. Most of this data represents actual wood consumption measured in tons provided to Forisk by wood using facilities.
Wood Demand Reports are used by wood procurement managers, foresters, timberland owners and executives to answer questions such as:
- How many mills in my market consume the forest products growing on my timberland?
- Is the market (demand) for my forest products growing, shrinking, or stabilizing?
- Which markets in the South show increasing or decreasing demand for wood by product?
- Exactly how much wood do we consume or sell relative to everyone else in the market?
This sample report covers wood consumption in South Georgia (GA_2). 90.4% of the data represents actual annual wood receipts provided by mills or collected from public sources. 37.6% of the quarterly data represents actual monthly or quarterly data provided by mills. For the balance, we estimate tons consumed through converting board feet (sawmills) or metric tons (pulp mills).
Wood Demand Report subscriptions cost:
- $300/year for the first market.
- $150/year for each additional market.
- $600/year for reports tailored to a specific mill or timberland ownership.
