OSTI ID:5009742
In response to past increases in population, economic activity, and income, the demand for nearly all products of forest and range lands, and the associated inland waters, has risen rapidly. The growth has been especially fast for some forms of outdoor recreation. This study provides an analysis of the present situation and the outlook for outdoor recreation and wilderness, wildlife and fish, forest-range grazing, timber, and water. It includes statistical data on the ownership, condition, and productivity of the U.S.'s 16 billion acres of forest and range lands and associated inland waters; recent changes in forest, range, and inland water resources; trends in the consumption and prices of major products; the prospective demand, supply, and price outlook to 2020; and opportunities for increasing supplies of products and improving productivity. Data are also included on international trade in forest and range products and the forest resources of important trading countries. The final chapter investigates the scientific information and data needs to conduct the inventories. (MCW)
