Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Productivity growth is an important component of long term economic growth. It has been estimated that historically, productivity increases have accounted for as much as a third of the growth rate in the United States. During the period 1950 to 1973, the U.S. economy grew at an average annual rate of 2.1 percent, dropping to an average annual rate of 0.3 percent for the period 1973 to 1977. Current sluggish growth rates for the economy have been blamed almost entirely on the recent slowdown in the productivity growth rate. For the same periods, aggregate productivity growth rates were 2.1 percent and 0.4 percent, respectively. This study explores the sources of productivity change in the U.S. forest products sector. Specifically the following questions were considered: (1) Since the forest-based sector is diverse in terms of products and manufacturing processes, are there differences in the sources of productivity change between the industries comprising the forest-based sector? (2) and, considering the regional nature of some forest products industries and the regional differences in the wood resource, do the source of productivity change vary across geographical regions as well? The objectives of the study are as follows: (1) analyze the potential sources of productivity change, (2) identify the important factors involved in productivity change in the forest-based sector, (3) and, assess the relative importance of these factors among industry groups and geographical regions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lord Rutherford has said that all science is either physics or stamp collecting. On that basis the study of forest biomass must be classified with stamp collecting and other such pleasurable pursuits. Japanese scientists have led the world, not only in collecting basic data, but in their attempts to systematise our knowledge of forest biomass. They have studied factors affecting dry matter production of forest trees in an attempt to approach underlying phYf'ical principles. This edition of Professor Satoo's book has been made possible the help of Dr John F. Hosner and the Virginia Poly technical Institute and State University who invited Dr Satoo to Blacksburg for three months in 1973 at about the time when he was in the final stages of preparing the Japanese version. Since then the explosion of world literature on forest biomass has continued to be fired by increasing shortages of timber supplies in many parts of the world as well as by a need to explore renewable sources of energy. In revising the original text I have attempted to maintain the input of Japanese work - much of which is not widely available outside Japan - and to update both the basic information and, where necessary, the conclusions to keep them in tune with current thinking. Those familiar with the Japanese original will find Chapter 3 largely rewritten on the basis of new work - much of which was initiated while Dr Satoo was in Blacksburg.
