Forest Tax & Economics
The Forest Tax & Economics program manages the tax and economics issues of the forest industry, assisting WFPA and its members in developing positions on forest taxation, and keeping members informed on matters and developments related to forest taxes, business taxes, and fees related to forest management. This program is supported by the Forest Tax & Economics Committee — comprised of tax specialists from member companies. This committee assists in analyzing and evaluating issues involving taxes landowners pay on land, timber, sales tax and B&O tax on operations, and other taxes or assessments that affect forest landowners in general.
