An Economic Analysis of Mine-Timber Marketing in West Virginia

Abstract

The author's objective in making this study is to describe and analyze the markets through which these timber products move from the forest to the mine. This involves an examination of both mine-timber supply and mine-timber demand. Supply information is based directly on a field survey carried out by the writer, while an understanding of mine-timber demand rests on more or less ancillary information acquired in the course of this survey. Factual information on mine-timber supply is given in one section, and an analytical treatment of both supply and demand is presented in another. The major reasons for this study are: first, the possible maladjustment in timber-products marketing that is evidenced by the very small income contribution forestry makes in West Virginia; and second, the importance of mine timbers in relation to other timber products.
