Kristie Matuszewski, Farm Credit East

With the resumption of a 25% tariff on U.S. imports of Canadian goods, the forest products industry is navigating a complex landscape in 2025. Join Farm Credit East and Horizon Farm Credit for a webinar on Tuesday, March 25, at 12 p.m., that will delve into the implications of these tariffs, the state of the North American housing market, and the forecast for softwood lumber consumption. 

Paul Jannke, a forest industry expert with Forest Economic Advisors (FEA), will present his perspective on the region’s forest product markets and economic outlook. Learn how softwood lumber, pulp, and the housing market supply and demand will impact the industry in the year ahead.
