Changes and corrections to Total roundwood removals and drain statistics

This page shows the changes to the statistics from 2020 onwards and the revisions from January 2022 onwards, such as mergers of statistics and name changes. A correction is a revision to the content of a statistical release made after this release date. Major revisions will also be published in an additional release.

Data on roundwood drain in 2014-2023 is revised.

New calculation principles for natural drain and logging residues based on the data of the 13th National Forest Inventory (NFI) measured in 2019-2023 were adopted in the calculation of total drain in 2024. At the same time, data for 2019-2023 were revised, as the new calculation principles apply to these years better than the previous ones. Over this period, the change increased the total national drain by an average of 1.4 mill. m3, or 1.6%. Similarly, the 2014-2018 drain was revised based on the NFI12 (2014-2018) criteria. Over this period, the total national drain decreased by an average of 0.5 mill. m3, or 0.6%.
