2: "Forest residue" refers to branches or roots carried into mills for use.

Note 1: Figures in parentheses refer to the volume of pulp and chips from mill residue or construction waste, which are already included in the volume of sawnwood, plywood, or others. These figures are excluded from "total" and "subtotal".

3: Total figures may not be equal to the sum of each item due to round off.
