Pacific Rim Demand And Supply Situation Trends And Prospects PDF Download

Excerpt from Pacific Rim Log Trade: Determinants and Trends Keywords: Markets (external), supply and demand (forest products), trade (pacific Rim), log exports. Timber exports have been a regular feature of trade from western North America for 150 years. By the late 19803, the Pacific Rim softwood log trade involved several hundred specialized ships, billions of dollars of annual transactions, and a distinctive and highly competitive industry structure. Demand for wood products around the Pacific Rim can be attributed to a chain of causal factors: a country's general economic health and interest rates determine homebuilding and construction activity, which draw wood products imports and manufacture. Log supplies are affected similarly by technical and economic factors. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
