National account of timber and forest environmental resources in Sweden

Author

  • Lars Hultkrantz

Abstract

This paper outlines an extension of the national account of income from forest resources in Sweden, 1987, incorporating changes in timber inventories, production of nonmarketed timber and nontimber goods, and depletion or improvement in vital environmental stocks such as soil nutrients, biodiversity and carbon sinks. The total net value added provided by forest resources and forestry labour 1987 is estimated to 22 billions SEK. This is one third more than the contribution of forestry to “ordinary” GNP.
