Series title Forest Finance: Working Paper

Edition 1

Synopsis (short abstract) This paper presents information about the contribution of the forestry sector to national economies at the global, regional and country levels. The paper presents figures for total employment, value-added and export earnings in the sector from 1990 to 2000, as well as information about trends in productivity. The figures include a mixture of statistics taken from published sources and FAO estimates. Unfortunately, statistics are not available for many countries or for activities in the informal sector, so these figures must be treated with some caution. However, the figures probably give a reasonable indication of the importance of the sector at the global and regional level and highlight broad changes over time. They also show some of the main differences in the structure of the sector between different countries and regions.

    Contribution du secteur forestier aux économies nationales, 1990-2011 2020

    Ce document est la deuxième mise à jour du rapport initial de la FAO sur ce thème. Il présente des informations concernant la contribution du secteur forestier aux économies nationales aux niveaux mondial, régional et national. L’étude décrit la situation et les tendances de la contribution du secteur forestier (emploi, valeur ajoutée et recettes d’exportation totaux) dans le secteur et analyse les moteurs qui sous-tendent ces tendances. Elle met à jour les données et l’analyse jusqu’en 2011. Elle donne une estimation raisonnable des tendances générales du secteur aux niveaux régional et mondial. Toutefois, au niveau des pays individuels, l’emploi de valeurs imputées pour certains chiffres (c’est-à-dire les estimations de la FAO plutôt que les statistiques publiées) devrait être pris en compte et ces estimations devraient être traitées avec prudence.
