China and Russia strengthen forestry cooperation The Vice Administrator for the China State Forestry Association (SFA), Mr Li Yucai, recently explained China and Russia's forest cooperation at a forest and wood processing investment conference sponsored by the SFA, WWF and Forest Trends. He noted that China and Russia signed a Memorandum on Strengthening Forestry Cooperation and a series of agreements, including on joint exploitation of forest fires. Mr.Li also told participants that Chinese enterprises have invested nearly USD1 billion in Russian forestry. According to Mr.Li, total production value of China's forest products reached USD160 billion in 2007, up 9.85% over the last year. The total volume of roundwood and wood-based panels produced was 69.74 million m3 and 73.65 million m3, respectively. The total value of forest products trade was USD57 billion. China currently ranks first in terms of global outputs of resin and wood-based panels and second in terms of furniture and paper products. Guangdong Province braces for wood shortage Mr.Zhan Zhijun, Director of Guangdong Forest Products Industry Association, revealed that wood prices would rise in the next three to five years, which would greatly impact downstream building material and paper making enterprises. This is attributed to the shortage of supply expected in the province following the effects of severe winter weather ( see TTM 13:4). Although Guangdong has been one of the most important forest products production and export provinces where wood consumption has remained around 20 million m3 in recent years, it is likely that consumption would be only 4 million m3 in the next few years. Wood production levels will be determined by imports from other provinces such as Hunan, Guangxi, Fujian and Jiangxi and abroad. To address the imbalance of wood demand and supply, the forestry department of Guangdong is consulting with customs and quarantine departments to set up wood collection and distribution points at ports to import wood directly from foreign countries.
