Presentation of BEA-REIS data for jobs and income from wood related sectors, with comparisons to other sectors in 2007 and trends from 1990 to 2007 showing the percentage contributions of these sectors to the overall economy. In addition, an IMPLAN (input-output) model was developed for each state, for the US South (all 13 states) and for the total US economy.
This information was developed by Karen L. Abt, PhD of the US Forest Service Southern Research Station. I will attempt to update this each spring when the Department of Commerce data and the IMPLAN data are updated (usually around January for the IMPLAN data (for 2 years back) and around April for the BEA-REIS data (one year back).
