FOREWORD

In this bulletin we discuss recent South Dakota forest industry trends and report the results of a detailed study of the forest industry, industrial roundwood production, and associated primary mill wood and bark residue in South Dakota in 2004. Such detailed information is necessary for intelligent planning and decisionmaking in wood procurement, forest resources management, and forest industry development. Likewise, researchers need current forest industry and industrial roundwood information for planning projects.

Special thanks are given to the primary wood-using firms for supplying information for this study and to the South Dakota Department of Agriculture, Division of Resource Conservation and Forestry, for canvassing the respondents. Their cooperation is greatly appreciated.

All board foot data in this report have been converted to International 1/4-inch scale by applying a multiplier of 1.08 to all saw log volumes reported in Scribner scale by sawmills, a multiplier of 1.38 to all saw log volume reported in Doyle scale by sawmills, and a multiplier of 0.158 to all saw log volume reported in cubic feet.

Tables in the appendix relating to sawtimber volume are presented in both International 1/4-inch rule and cunits (100 cubic feet). The International 1/4-inch rule is the USDA Forest Service standard, while the cunit is a common measure used in South Dakota by forest industries and land management agencies. Because these results are used nationally and consistent comparisons are crucial, the International 1/4-inch rule is used as the unit of measure for sawtimber volume unless cunits are noted in the text. The authors have made an effort to include cunit tables to improve the utility of the inventory results for regional and local users of these results.

Another common unit of measure for sawtimber in South Dakota is the Scribner Decimal C log scale. The Scribner Decimal C scale is different from the Scribner scale in that it rounds the volume to the nearest 10 board feet. For example, 392 on the Scribner scale is equivalent to 390 board feet on the Scribner Decimal C scale. Because sawtimber volumes in this report are reported in thousand board feet International 1/4-inch rule, it is recommended that volumes be converted to Scribner scale and not rounded to the nearest 10. To convert from International 1/4-inch rule to Scribner scale, multiply the volume by 0.724638.

The last published report from a detailed study of all industrial roundwood output in South Dakota was for 1999. Most comparisons in this report are with the 1999 study results. Rows and columns may not sum due to rounding, but data in each table cell are accurately displayed.

When new surveys are completed, errors and omissions from previous surveys are corrected. As a result of our ongoing efforts to improve the survey’s efficiency and reliability, changes may have been made to the previous survey’s data. All comparisons and analysis in this report are based on the reprocessed data from earlier surveys, which may not match earlier published data.

HIGHLIGHTS

PRImARy TImBER INDUSTRy—INDUSTRIAL ROUNDWOOD

• In 2004, South Dakota’s primary wood-using industry was comprised of 17 sawmills, 3 post mills, 3 cabin log mills, 1 excelsior/shavings mill, and 1 particleboard mill (table 1).

• Seventeen of the State’s primary wood-using mills were located in the Western Forest Survey Unit, which contained the majority of South Dakota’s forest resources (fig. 1).

• In the Western Forest Survey Unit, two sawmills, two cabin log mills, and one post mill opened between 1999 and 2004. In the Eastern Unit, three sawmills and one excelsior/shavings mill opened, and one sawmill and one cabin log mill closed between surveys.

• The Western Unit supplied 99 percent of the total saw logs produced in South Dakota, but only 1 percent of the hardwood saw logs came from this unit (table 7).

• Production of spruce, cedar, elm, and bur oak saw logs increased between 1999 and 2004, while production of ponderosa pine, cottonwood, ash, and black walnut saw logs decreased.

OTHER PRODUCTS

Due to the limited number of mills producing other products in South Dakota, receipts are not provided to avoid disclosure of individual mills.

• Pulp and particleboard plants consumed 17 thousand cords or 5 percent of South Dakota’s industrial roundwood production in 2004.

• More than 470 thousand posts, or 1 percent of the industrial roundwood produced, came from South Dakota’s forest land in 2004.

• The production of cabin logs in South Dakota increased from 9 thousand cubic feet in 1999 to 198 thousand cubic feet in 2004.

• In 2004, there was a market for the expanding eastern redcedar resource in South Dakota as excelsior/shaving bolts.

Residential fuelwood is a major nonindustrial product in South Dakota. The results of a residential fuelwood study conducted in 1994 are available in “Residential Fuelwood Consumption and Production in South Dakota, 1994,” Resource Bulletin NC-171, by Dennis M. May. This report may be downloaded at: http://ncrs.fs.fed.us/pubs/.

TImBER REmOVALS

• In the process of harvesting industrial roundwood in 2004, 30 million cubic feet of wood material were removed from South Dakota’s forest land, the same as in 1999 (table 8).

• Seventy-one percent of the total wood material harvested from South Dakota’s forests in 2004 was used for the production of primary wood products. The remainder was left on the ground as harvest residues (fig. 4).

5

• Almost 22 million cubic feet of South Dakota’s growing-stock inventory were removed from timberland, a 2-percent decrease from 1999 (table 8). This decrease in growing-stock removals was due to some mills processing roundwood from dead trees and tree tops.

• Ninety-three percent of the growing stock harvested was used for products and 7 percent was left on the ground as logging residue. Only 14 percent of the non-growing stock that was harvested was used for products, with the rest left as logging slash.

• Ninety-eight percent of the growing-stock removals came from the Western Forest Survey Unit (table 9).

• Limbwood accounted for more than 75 percent of the non-growing-stock sources of roundwood used for the production of primary wood products.

• In 2004, there were more than 121 million board feet of sawtimber removed from South Dakota’s timberland, just 1 percent less than in 1999 (table 10).

HARVEST RESIDUES

• In 2004, harvesting of industrial roundwood products left over 8.7 million cubic feet of harvest residues on the ground in South Dakota (table 11), 3 percent less than in 1999.

• Nearly all (99 percent) of the harvest residues produced in 2004 were produced in the Western Forest Survey Unit of South Dakota.

• Because ponderosa pine was the major species harvested in South Dakota in 2004, it makes up the majority (97 percent) of the harvest residue that was generated.

PRImARy mILL RESIDUES

• In converting industrial roundwood into products such as lumber, particleboard, poles and posts, and cabin logs, South Dakota’s primary wood-using industry generated 383 thousand green tons of wood and bark residues, 18 percent more than in 1999 (table 12).

• Fifty percent of the mill residues produced in 2004 were in the form of coarse wood residues, such as slabs and edgings, which are suitable for chipping. Fine residue, which includes sawdust and shavings, made up another 29 percent of the mill residues produced, and bark residue accounted for the remaining 21 percent (fig. 5).

• Nearly all mill residues were used. The production of fiber products, such as pulp and particleboard, consumed 66 percent of the total residues produced by South Dakota’s primary wood-using mills in 2004. Miscellaneous uses such as livestock bedding, mulch, small dimension lumber, and specialty products consumed another 21 percent of the mill residues (fig. 6).

APPENDIX

STUDy mETHODS

This study was a cooperative effort of the South Dakota Department of Agriculture (SDDA) and the North Central Research Station (NCRS). Using mail questionnaires supplied by NCRS and designed to determine the size and composition of the State’s primary wood-using industry, its use of roundwood, and its generation and disposition of wood residues, the SDDA canvassed all primary wood-using mills within the State. SDDA made followups to nonresponding mills using additional mailings, telephone calls, and personal contacts until a 100-percent response was achieved. Completed questionnaires were sent to NCRS for editing and processing.

As part of data editing and processing, all industrial roundwood volumes reported on the questionnaires were converted to standard units of measure using regional conversion factors. Timber removals by source of material and harvest residues generated during logging were estimated from standard product volumes using factors developed from logging utilization studies previously conducted by NCRS. Mill residue volumes were calculated based on the input volume, product, species, and disposition percents supplied by the mill. Finalized data on South Dakota’s industrial roundwood receipts were loaded into a regional timber removals database where they were supplemented with data on out-of-State uses of South Dakota roundwood to provide a complete assessment of South Dakota’s timber product output.

DEFINITION OF TERmS

Board foot—Unit of measure applied to roundwood. It relates to lumber that is 1 foot long, I foot wide, and 1 inch thick (or its equivalent).

Bolt—A short log no more than 8 feet long, to be sawn for lumber, peeled or sliced for veneer, shaved for excelsior, or converted into shingles, cooperage stock, dimension stock, blocks, blanks, etc.

Central stem—The portion of a tree between a 1-foot stump and the minimum 4.0-inch top diameter outside bark, or point where the central stem breaks into limbs all of which are less than 4.0 inches diameter outside bark.

Saw log top—The point on the central stem of sawtimber trees above which a saw log cannot be produced. The minimum saw log top is 7.0 inches diameter outside bark for softwoods and 9.0 inches diameter outside bark for hardwoods.

Sawtimber removals—As used in table 8, sawtimber removals refers to the net volume in the merchantable central stem of sawtimber trees harvested for industrial roundwood products. (Note: includes the saw log and upper stem portions of sawtimber trees.) When referring to the sawtimber volume removed from the timberland inventory as in table 10, sawtimber removals refers to the net volume in the saw log portion of sawtimber trees harvested for roundwood products or left on the ground as harvest residues, and is usually expressed in thousands of board feet (International 1/4-inch rule).
