Forestry

Forestry under SIC 800 spans timberland management, logging, replanting, and ancillary services like biomass recovery and carbon-credit monetization, serving lumber mills, pulp and paper producers, panelboard makers, utilities seeking biomass feedstock, and public agencies requiring habitat stewardship. Operators market sawlogs, pulpwood, engineered wood inputs, and forest-management contracts, while competing on yield, certification, and logistics. Major risks center on wildfire and storm damage, invasive pests, shifting harvest quotas, and compliance with federal and state logging permits, endangered-species protections, water-quality rules, and evolving ESG disclosure expectations for land use. In 2024-2025, the sector is leaning into precision silviculture using drones and satellite analytics, higher demand for mass timber and bio-based materials in construction, and expanding voluntary carbon markets that reward sustainable rotations. Consolidation and REIT conversions continue as owners seek scale and tax efficiency, while mills diversify supply to hedge climate volatility.
