timber

China is top Asia-Pacific timber suppliers could at best maintain current supply, with resources being depleted in less than 20 years. Resource limits also constrain expansion and long-term continuation of processed product export to China. In 2005, timber import volume in China increased 11.57％ and import value increased 15.74％ than last year. timber import in China has stepped into a virtuous cycle; it will keep steady increase in the future, even a little decrease under the circumstance of steady development. Since wood source in China is extremely dearth, and our processing technotimbery is comparatively behind other countries, timber export in China is always limited. World timber prices were estimated to have been depressed by 7-16 percent by the flooding of the marketplace with illegal timber and wood products in 2005. The quantity of Dongbei timbers arriving in China subsequently fell by 83 percent. This led to a doubling in timber prices and a 42 percent increase in sawn timber prices at the ports in China. A late 2005 crack-down in Yunnan State led to significant decreases in timber availability to Chinese industry at the Myanmar–Yunnan border.
