The industrial roundwood production in Mexico has shown significant fluctuations over the past decade. Starting from 5.353 million cubic meters in 2013 and maintaining that level in 2014, production experienced a slight growth of 0.9% in 2015. However, a notable increase of 12.65% followed in 2016, and a remarkable 30.75% surge in 2017, peaking at 7.955 million cubic meters. Despite minor decline in 2018, production stabilized around 7.651 million cubic meters from 2019 to 2022. In 2023, a modest increase brought the value up to 7.7249 million cubic meters.
As of 2024, forecasted data predicts a gradual increase in industrial roundwood production, reaching 8.0728 million cubic meters by 2028. Recent year-on-year variations indicate a stabilization trend, with the last two years' growth rate at approximately 0.97% for 2023. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over the past five years (2019-2023) is relatively low at 0.19%, reflecting a period of stability following earlier fluctuations.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Impact of environmental policies on production levels and sustainable practices.
- Technological advancements in logging and production processes.
- Market demand shifts driven by global economic conditions and industry needs.
- Conservation efforts and their effect on available resources and production capacity.
