The Forest and Forest Products Industry covers a diverse range of activities ranging from growing and management of plantation and native forest resource, through harvesting, sawmilling and processing, to the manufacture, merchandising and retailing of finished products. The Industry is characterised by a mix of small, medium and large enterprises.
