Seattle, USA, April 25, 2009 -- Log consumption in Finland was substantially lower
in 2008 than in the previous year.
Total harvests were down about seven percent,
with log deliveries from small private owners 25% lower than in 2007.
Contrary to
domestic log deliveries, log imports increased by three percent, totaling over 13
million m3 last year.
However, shipments fell dramatically late in 2008, with
softwood imports in the 4Q/08 down 24% from the same quarter in 2007 and hardwood
log imports declining 28% over the same time period.
Demand for logs was quite different for the pulp industry compared to the
sawmilling sector.
The total harvest of sawlogs was down an estimated 22% in 2008
and the decline in the imports of conifer sawlogs was close to 45%, with the
biggest reduction originating in Russia.
