2 ABSTRACT Warren, Debra D Production, prices, employment, and trade in Northwest forest industries, first quarter 199. Resour. Bull. PNW-RB-175. Portland, OR: US. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Pacific Northwest Research Station. 99 p. Provides current information on lumber and ptywood production and prices; employment in the forest industries: international trade in logs, lumber, and plywood; volume and average prices of stumpage sold by public agencies; and other related items. Keywords: Forestry business economics, lumber prices, plywood prices, timber volume, stumpage prices, employment (forest products industries), marketing (forest products), imports and exports (forest products). PREFACE This report presents current information on the timber situation in Alaska, Washington, Oregon, California, Montana, Idaho, and British Columbia, including data on lumber and plywood production and prices; timber harvest; employment in forest products industries; international trade in logs, pulpwood, chips, lumber, and plywood: log prices in the Pacific Northwest; volume and average prices of stumpage sold by public agencies; and other related items. Historical data for the years before are in the issues of "Production, Prices, Employment, and Trade in Northwest Forest Industries." Cooperation in supplying data has been received from the following sources: the US.
