Book Description

West Virginia's wood products manufacturing industry employs 9,400 workers with an output of more than $2.0 billion (NAICS 321-Wood product manufacturing, and NAICS 322-Paper manufacturing) (U.S. Census Bureau 2007). Given the economic importance of West Virginia's wood industry, the purpose of this bulletin is to analyze recent forest industry trends in the State and report the results of a detailed study of West Virginia's forest industry, industrial roundwood production, and associated primary mill wood and bark residue in 2007. Such detailed information is necessary for intelligent planning and decisionmaking in wood procurement, economic research, forest resources management, and forest industry development. Likewise, researchers need current forest industry and industrial roundwood information for planning projects.
