1 Modeling the Effects of Invasive Species on the International Trade of Forest Products Joseph Buongiorno, Shushuai Zu, Ruhong Li U.W. Madison James Turner Forest Research, Rotorua, NZ Jeff Prestemon USDA-FS, SO

2 Background U.S. forests at risk –Chestnut blight, early 1900s –Dutch Elm Disease, mid-1900s –Balsam and Hemlock Woolly Adelgids –Sudden Oak Death –Gypsy Moth –Spruce budworm –Oak wilt U.S. is largest producer, consumer, importer Globalization –GATT-WTO –NAFTA –FTAA Growing trade => growing threat Other countries face same issues

3 Objectives Losses incurred by producers and consumers due to timber supply reductions caused by invasive species Effects of regulations (phytosanitary rules and import bans) on producer and consumer welfare

4 Global Forest Products Model  Dynamic Competitive equilibrium  Demand  Supply  Trade  14 forest products  180 countries

5 GFPM Product Flow Raw materialIntermediate productFinal product Fuelwood Industrial roundwood Other roundwood Other fiber pulp Waste paper Fuelwood Other industrial roundwood Sawnwood Plywood Particleboard Fiberboard Newsprint Printing & writing paper Other paper & paperboard Mechanical pulp Chemical pulp
