United States pulpwood receipts : softwood and hardwood, roundwood and residues, 1950-1989

Abstract

This report shows pulpwood receipts at pulp mills in the United States for the period 1950-1989. It is a compilation of published and estimated data based on information from various sources, including the American Pulpwood Association, American Paper Institute, U.S. Bureau of the Census, and the USDA Forest Service. Trends are shown in the use of hardwoods compared to softwoods and residues compared to roundwood, by the Forest Service timber supply regions. These historical data were compiled to help develop new pulpwood supply functions for the Timber Assessment Market Model and the North American Pulp and Paper Model of the USDA Forest Service.
