Abstract:
Pakistan may be wood poor relative to other nations, but the recent market-based use of wood by this culture seems to be surprisingly well-adapted to the current rate of wood growth and production although there are some exceptions. Pakistan's Malthusian wood scarcity model needs to be replaced with more realistic wood futures scenarios that integrate wood with the energy, agricultural and industrial sectors in order to formulate appropriate policy to guide the future of Pakistan's wood sector.
