forest products
Wood and pulp
Forest products are materials derived from forests, especially wood in its various forms—lumber, pulp, paper, plywood, and firewood.
The term extends to non-timber products like maple syrup, rubber, nuts, and medicinal plants.
The region's economy depends heavily on forest products.
Government agencies and trade groups use the term to encompass the full range of commercially harvested forest resources.
