Abstract

Legislative measures influencing the European Union's timber market and their potential impacts on increasing additional costs

The situation of the timber market is influenced by many factors, but one of the main factors affecting the price of timber is illegal logging and related trade. The European Union has been fighting against illegal logging for a long time and currently the fight is being intensified with the adoption of legislative measures intended to suppress illegal activities. The paper summarizes the situation of the EU's timber market with an emphasis on illegally harvested timber, and analyzes current legislative measures that may affect the supply and demand of timber and that may influence operators in both the public and private sectors.
