Production, consumption, and prices of softwood products in North America: regional time series data, 1950 to 1985.

The data included here were compiled for use in the 1980 Renewable Resources Planning Act Timber Assessment conducted by the U.S. Forest Service. They were used to develop structural equations and relationships comprising the 1980 Timber Assessment Market Model. These data series-covering U.S. demand, U.S. supply, and Canada-span 27 years of softwood production and consumption. Many were derived from unpublished sources, so this computation makes such data generally available to analysts for the first time.
