Reviews U.S. foreign and domestic markets for softwood construction materials, giving special consideration to trade patterns among Japan, Canada, and the United States. For alternative assumptions about market responses to a ban of U.S. softwood log exports, displays impacts on selected measures of U.S. softwood stumpage, lumber, and plywood markets.
