Abstract:

Maine’s forest products industry is considered a backbone of the state’s economy. Logging is an essential part of the forest products industry, which directly effects the availability and cost of wood. This report updates and builds upon a report released in 2014 that highlights the logging industry’s economic role in Maine.
