Resumen

Las evaluaciones macroeconómicas de la industria forestal tienden a subestimar su impacto en las economías regionales.

Este trabajo propone un concepto más amplio – la cadena de valor de los productos forestales- que incluye la contribución de las actividades que dependen (directa e indirectamente) de la silvicultura y los productos forestales. Con una metodología basada en un modelo de input-output multirregional y centrado en la economía portuguesa. Los resultados elucidan el papel del eucalipto en las producciones de pulpa, papel y cartón y artículos de papel y cartón. Finalmente, se evalúan las consecuencias macroeconómicas proyectadas para una reducción de estas producciones.
