Abstract
This survey consists of a study of forest resources of the state of Iowa and reflects an industrial point of view concerning the utilization of forest products. The immediate area is part of the hardwood region included in the north central state, and is divided between the Mississippi and Missouri River Basins. The total volume of both hard and soft hardwood species can be supplemented by large quantities of pine and softwood timber readily available from western or northern states. It is obvious that there will be a necessary expansion of paper and related industries throughout the world and this development will require the proper utilization of available timber fibers for this purpose.
