"Who Will Own the Forest? 3" Summit : A World Forest Institute Conference
Join us at the World Forest Institute for the third "Who Will Own the Forest? 3" Summit Conference. This event will address a variety of issues on timberland investments, the shift in forest ownership and the implications for investors, the forest industry and forest health. Dont miss this exceptional event at the World Forestry Center campus in Portland. Why are investors choosing to invest in timberland these days? How have manufacturing changes and industry globalization affected where and how timber is sourced? What are investors demanding in the way of environmental accountability? How do supply agreements change the game plan for timberland investors? What are the top trends in timber investing and what do they suggest for the future? What are the opportunities and challenges of investing in the US and of investing overseas? How reliable are timberland appraisals? How do tax treatments and financial accounting drive timberland transactions? Are TIMOs walking away from silvicultural investments? Who will finance forest research traditionally funded by the forest industry? How will fragmentation impact forest health and future investments—will smaller tracts make timber less profitable?
