Predicts the amount of wood expected to be cut due to deforestation in the near future. Notes that the wood processing industry is incapable of dealing with more than 10 percent of this unless this industry is better developed and managed. Franco, M.A.B. 1982.

Freas, A.D.; Chudnoff, M.; Koeppen, R.C.; Hutchin- son, S.B. 1973. Factors influencing the utilization of tropical wood species. Washington, DC: Agency for Interna- tional Development. TA/OST 73-22, 31 p. Reports an investigation of reasons for the under-utilization of a large number of secondary timber species in tropical countries where relatively few species enter the trade, with particular reference to Colombia, Ghana, Nigeria, and the Philippines. It is concluded that the immediate problem is a lack of readily available information on the properties of these species, since the existing data are scattered and difficult to evaluate. This has given rise to problems of inventory, marketing, and processing. Several recommendations are made for a program of international aid to tropical timber producers. Garduno, G.R. 1959.
