As of the end of 2023, Russia's sawnwood and log exports reached 25 million cubic meters, compared with 27 million cubic meters in the same period last year, a decrease of 7%. Russian timber was shipped to more than 50 destinations in 2023.<\/span><\/p>\n

The main export destination is still China. According to Roslesinforge, approximately 14 million cubic meters of sawn timber and logs were shipped to China, accounting for 56% of Russia\u2019s total exports. Among them, sawn timber increased by 3%, accounting for 67% of the total sawn timber. The supply of pine sawn timber in the Chinese market exceeded that of spruce sawn timber; logs fell by 25% as expected. Other smaller markets also experienced growth.<\/p>\n

For example, Turkey increased 2.3 times to 280,000 cubic meters; the United Arab Emirates increased 64% to 490,000 cubic meters.<\/p>\n

Regarding the prospects of Russian timber exports, Yulia Kuznetsova, a Russian investment consultant, pointed out that the total volume of timber exports is expected to decrease by 7% per year in the next few years. The reason she gave was that many countries refused to cooperate with Russia due to Russian sanctions.<\/p>\n

Denis Paleyev, associate professor at the Department of National Economy at the School of Economics of the People's Friendship University of Russia and a doctoral candidate in technical sciences, said that there are many reasons for the decline in investment in the Russian timber industry.<\/p>\n

First, it is an increase in central bank interest rates that increases the cost of all credit money in the country.<\/p>\n

Secondly, timber exports dropped significantly. Before the war began, almost half of the timber exported went to countries that are currently unfriendly, such as EU countries, as well as Japan and the United States. He pointed out that now our main buyer has become China. Although China's exports have increased several times, it still cannot make up for the losses of Western partners.<\/p>\n

Third, logistics problems have become prominent since 2022. Traditionally, timber was shipped from the Northwest to Europe and from Siberia to China. With the launch of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, container traffic from China increased dramatically. As a result, in the European part of Russia, there was a problem of returning empty containers, and the carrier reduced the price of containers transporting wood to China by nearly 10 times.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
