Abstract: Forests cover about one-third of the land surface on Earth. Currently, <7.5% of this forest area is defined as planted forest. Removals from planted forests are shown to be responsible for about 45% of the global industrial roundwood production. It is therefore of great importance to study how the production of roundwood from planted forests could potentially influence the production of roundwood from natural forests and the global wood markets in general.
