Past and present trends in production, consumption, and trade are outlined via 12 tables derived from original statistical sources. Future estimates of forest-sector activity are presented through seven tables that extrapolate behavioral patterns of market economies with respect to the consumption of forest products to the former Soviet republics.}, author = {Backman, C.
