Method of collection/Data provider
MPI surveys wood processors from around New Zealand, both quarterly and annually, for their production and stock information. Each survey represents about 125 timber, panel, and pulp mills throughout New Zealand.
This production information is then compiled with export data sourced from Statistics New Zealand. Combining these 2 data sets allows MPI to calculate an estimate for the roundwood removed from New Zealand forests. This estimate for roundwood removals is then released, along with production and trade information.
