Abstract

This report traces the flow of Idaho’s 2019 timber harvest through the primary wood products industry and characterizes the structure, condition, and economic impacts of Idaho’s forest products sector. Historical changes in the forest products industry, as well as trends in timber harvest, production, sawmill capacity, mill residuals, and sales value, are presented. Employment and worker earnings in the State’s primary and secondary forest products industries are also discussed. Periodic survey data collected from the forest products industry provide detailed information on Idaho’s timber resources, wood utilization, and the economic contributions of the industry to the State economy through time.
