Historical Trends of Timber Product Output in the South


Book Description

Contains historical data of canvasses of primary wood-using plants conducted periodically in the 13 Southern States, and presents changes in product output by year of survey species group, and product by thousand cubic feet and standard units. This data complements the periodic inventory of volume, growth, and removals from each State's timberland. The canvasses were conducted to determine the amount and source of wood receipts and annual timber product drain by county and to determine interstate and cross-regional movement of industrial roundwood. Only primary wood-using mills were canvassed.
















An Assessment of Timber Product Output and Use, 1995, in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia


Book Description

Contains the findings of a 1995 canvass of all primary wood-using plants in Florida, Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Virginia which was conducted to determine the amount and source of wood receipts and annual timber product drain by county in 1995 and to determine interstate and cross-regional movement of industrial roundwood. Findings are presented by state in tabular format with supporting text. Includes data on total roundwood output, plant byproducts, and regional trends. Also includes definitions, conversion factors, and table indices.




The South's Timber Industry- An Assessment of Timber Product Output and Use,2007


Book Description

The Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) Research Work Unit of the USDA Forest Service developed the Timber Product Output (TPO) Database Retrieval System to help customers answer questions about timber harvesting and use in the Southern Region. This system acts as an interface to a standard set of consistently coded TPO data for each State and county in the region and Nation. This regional and national set of TPO data consists of 11 variables that describe for each county the roundwood products harvested, logging residues left in the woods, other timber removals (i.e. land clearing and reserved timber removals), and wood and bark residues generated by the county's primary wood-using mills. The system is available through the FIA Web site: http: //srsfia2 fs fed.us/

Changes in South Carolina's Industrial Timber Products Output, 1988


Book Description

The roundwood output of industrial timber products from South Carolina’s forests amounted to 605.1 million cubic feet in 1988, nearly 3 percent more than in 1987. Volume of industrial timber products generated from plant byproducts increased by nearly 1 percent to 205.9 million cubic feet in 1988. In 1988, residues used for fiber and fuel totaled 176.5 million cubic feet, Pulpwood was the Sate’s leading roundwood product with 283.2 million cubic feet; next was saw logs with 253.7 cubic feet, and then veneer logs with 62.7 million cubic feet. The trend continues toward complete utilization of plant byproducts, with the volume of unused plant residues dropping by 4 percent, to 0.8 million cubic feet. Fewer mills had greater receipts, indicating increased utilization and processing efficiency.
