Primarg ulood-using plants in Arkansas, 1971
. . 11
The Report in Brief
Arkansas forests supplied more than 451 million cubic feet of roundwood to forest in- dustries in 1971. Softwoods, mainly pine, made up more than two-thirds of the total. The timber harvest increased 15 percent during the years 1969-1971, while the number of pri- mary wood-using plants decreased. Saw logs and pulpwood comprised 83 percent of the roundwood. Veneer logs made up over 9 per- cent, with more than half of the remainder going into poles and charcoal wood. Figure 1 shows recent trends in output of these products.
cubic feet of wood residues. Seventy-nine per- cent of this volume was used for byproducts, mainly pulp chips. The volume of residues and the proportion utilized have both been increasing.
A total of 499 wood-using plants were in operation during 1971. Some small sawmills have been shutting down, and larger mills are increasing their output. Pulpmills have been expanding their capacities, and development of pine veneer plants has more than offset a declining hardwood veneer industry.
These are among the major findings of a canvass of all primary forest industries in Arkansas. In the past, surveys of forest indus- tries have usually been made on a 10-year cycle. Thus, data for Arkansas were gathered in 1948, 1958, and 1968. Because developments in the State have been proceeding rapidly, however, the Arkansas Forestry Commission saw the need for a new survey in 1971. Under supervision of James G. Barnum, Commission personnel visited all primary wood-using plants in the State. Their data were compiled and analyzed by the Forest Resources Research Unit of the Southern Forest Experiment Sta- tion.
This report tabulates total State production and shows softwood and hardwood output by county. It also lists names and addresses of all primary forest industries; plant locations

In converting roundwood into lumber and by County," is available without charge from veneer, Arkansas mills generated 170 million the Southern Forest Experiment Station.
SAW LOGS s Arkansas harvested 1 3 billion board feet
of saw logs in 1971, about half of the State's total roundwood production. Softwoods, most- ly pine but including some cypress and eastern redcedar, made up two-thirds of the volume. Oaks accounted for 62 percent of the hardwood saw logs with the gums second in volume har- vested. Some 67 million board feet of saw logs came from out of the State. This was almost three times the amount exported to surrounding States.
For the last 25 years, the trend in the South has been toward fewer but larger sawmills. Thus, 78 Arkansas sawmills shut down in the last 3 years, but average production per mill increased from 2.8 million board feet in 1968 to 3.7 in 1971. Of the mills that closed, only one was large (cutting at least 3 million board feet annually).
Receipts at the 92 large mills now in opera- tion accounted for almost 90 percent of the State's saw log production.
Arkansas still has 278 small sawmills. They vary widely in size and equipment, but for most the annual production is considerably less than 3 million feet. Many lack dry kilns and planers, and only a few have equipment for converting their residues into pulp chips. Ownership changes rapidly, and continued closures may be expected. In contrast to the situation 10 or 15 years ago, however, the great majority of surviving small mills are at fixed locations. In Arkansas, as elsewhere, the portable mill has become a rarity.
PULPWOOD
Arkansas' harvest of round pulpwood in 1971 totaled 1.9 million cords, an increase of 23 percent since 1968 (fig. 2). Pine bolts accounted for nearly two-thirds of the total. Oaks and gums were the dominant hardwoods.
Although the number of pulpmills in Arkan- sas remained constant, plant expansion raised the combined total capacity of the seven mills from 4,113 tons per day in 1968 to 4,740 tons in 1971. Capabilities of individual mills range from 140 to 1,700 tons daily.
In addition to roundwood the pulpmills used the equivalent of 1.3 million cords of plant
Figure 2.-Pulpwood production i n Arkansas, 1958- 1971.
byproducts in 1971. This volume represents over two fifths of the total pulpwood produc- tion in the State. Use of plant byproducts has increased 69 percent since 1968; almost all of this wood comes from ihe big mills that saw most of the State's pinc saw logs or rnanufac- ture southern pine plywood.
VENEER
Again in keeping with trends throughout the Midsouth, Arkansas has increased its pine plywood plants by three since 1968, and has seen a net decrease of three hardwood veneer plants. Of the 13 veneer plants operating dur- ing 1971, seven manufactured southern pine plywood and one produced only green pine veneer.
Arkansas forests yielded 259 million board feet of veneer logs in 1971, a 14-percent in- crease over 1968. Softwood logs accounted for this increase and also made up for a 20-percent decline in hardwood veneer logs. Softwoods represented 94 percent of the State's veneer log harvest in 1971. Less than 10 years ago, hardwoods accounted for all of it.
OTHER PRODUCTS
The volume of roundwood used for all other products increased by 42 percent since 1968
and accounted for almost 8 percent of the total harvest. Southern pine poles were the leading item in this category, with charcoal wood sec- ond. The two combined used 23 million cubic feet of wood. Another 12 million cubic feet were cut for miscellaneous products such as commercial posts, piling, furniture stock, han- dlestock, excelsior, miscellaneous dimension, and cooperage.
PLANT RESIDUES
In the conversion of roundwood into pri- mary products, more than 170 million cubic feet of wood residues was generated. Two- thirds of this volume was in coarse items such as slabs, edgings, cull pieces, and other material suitable for conversion into pulp chips. The rest was comprised of finer particles such as sawdust and shavings.
Over 104 million cubic feet of such plant byproducts went into pulp. Fourteen million cubic feet were burned for domestic and indus- trial fuel. And 17 million cubic feet were used
for miscellaneous purposes such as charcoal animal bedding, and soil mulch.
Thus, Arkansas forest industries convertec 79 percent of their wood residues into plan byproducts in 1971. The unused 35 millioi cubic feet was mostly fine particles with nl present market. In 1968, 65 percent of residue were utilized. Decline of small sawmills, wit1 consequently greater aggregation of residue at large sawmills with chipping equipment explains most of the improvement in utiliza tion.
While converting roundwood during 1971 Arkansas forest industries accumulated 1 .! million tons of bark. Somewhat less than two thirds of this material was burned as industria fuel or-in smaller amounts-utilized for char coal, domestic fuel, animal bedding, and soi mulch. Over one-half million tons of bark wa, unused in the State.
Bark presently has little value, but a t re mendous amount is generated annually. P major need is to devise ways of using it tc advantage.

1973. Arkansas forest industries, 1971. South. For. Exp. Stn., New Orleans, La. 29 p. (USDA For. Serv. Resour. Bull. SO-38)
Arkansas forests supplied more than 451 million cubic feet of roundwood to forest industries in 1971. Total timber harvest has increased 15 percent since 1968. Saw logs and pulpwood, ranking first and second, accounted for 83 per- cent of the roundwood harvest. The total number of saw- mills declined, but average receipts per mill increased.
