The objective of this project was to investigate technical efficiency and productivity growth in the Pacific Northwest sawmilling industry over the period 1968-2002. Productivity growth was decomposed into three components: technical change, efficiency change, and scale efficiency change. In addition, using econometric methods, changes in output elasticities and input substitution...
The number of sawmills in the coastal lumber-producing area
of British Columbia diminished from 364 In 1955 to 162 in 1968. In
the interior of the province the reduction in plant numbers was from
2125 to 740. Over the same period lumber production in the province

The main objective of this research was to compare the demand and
the price of hard red winter (HRW) wheat and white wheat (WW) to
determine the similarities and the differences between these two wheat
classes.
