Abstract

Estimates are developed of primary and secondary wood products production and consumption in the Lake States (Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota) between 1960 and 1980. Consumption estimates are derived through application of the use-factor approach. Increased cooperation among forestry agencies in the three states appears to hold significant regional benefits.
