Abstract

Pulpwood production in the south increased more in 1969 than in any previous year in the history of the region - 3,793,600 cords. Production climbed to 40,868,990 cords, which was two-thirds of the Nation's total. Within the region, more pulpwood was produced in the Midsouth than in the Southeast for the first time in at least the past 30 years. Altogether, the South supplied wood to I21 mills. Of these, 105 are in the region and have a combined daily pulping capacity of 80,980 tons.
