An understanding of market conditions and market dynamics is necessary in order to choose, implement, and evaluate marketrelated policy instruments such as certification of forest management practices and labelling of forest products. A review of world patterns of timber production and trade illustrates the relative importance of production of industrial timber in tropical forests, and recent trends in tropical timber markets. In order to accurately gauge market response to price and other factors affecting demand, models of forest products demand must incorporate information on prices of substitutes. The example of United States consumption and import of hardwood plywood is used to illustrate an approach to modeling that can contribute to analysis of policy issues for tropical timber.
