In 1991, 471 primary wood-using mills were operating in Missouri. Saw mills dominate Missouri's forest industry in terms of volume of wood used. Missouri's production of industrial roundwood is reported by the five Forest Survey Units in the State. Industrial roundwood production rose from 100 million cubic feet in 1987 to 121 million cubic feet in 1991. Roundwood production increased 21 percent for hardwoods and 30 percent for softwoods. Saw logs accounted for 78 percent of the industrial roundwood harvest in 1991. During 1991, Missouri produced 16 thousand cords of pulpwood, 8 thousand cords less than in 1987. Missouri loggers cut 7.5 million board feet of veneer logs in 1991, 60 percent more than in 1987.
