ANNEX 3: ROUNDWOOD RECONCILIATION OF INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION

Production scenarios for various forest industries in New Zealand are proposed in the main text. This table applies approximations of current roundwood conversion factors in New Zealand to the various industrial production to calculate roundwood equivalents. Comparing this calculation with the Turland et al harvest predictions shows the relative consistency of scenarios proposed in the text.

Notes

¹ Refers to Table No. providing data source in the main text.

² 1995 Conversion factor (derived from Ministry of Forestry Statistical Releases).

³ Non-exported production is used in Newsprint or Paper and Paperboard production.

⁴ Industrial Roundwood Equivalent is the sum of the 8 rows above

⁵ Efficiency error is the difference between the Turland et al forecast compared with Industrial Roundwood Equivalent added to Accumulated Forest Stock

⁶ Accumulated Forest Stock is the annual increase in the growing stock in the forest as a result of underharvesting
