Assessing the Raw Material Potential of Woodworking Industry of Ukraine and Countries of the World

Анотація

Woodworking industry is one of the important components of the forestry complex of Ukraine and countries of the world. The article is aimed at substantiating the methodological approach to the assessment of the raw material potential of the woodworking industry of the country. It is proposed to carry out an integral assessment of the raw material potential of the woodworking industry of the country according to the following components: forest-land percentage of the territory, reserves of forest stand, the total volume of wood production, the volume of production of commercial wood. The matrix of positioning of Ukraine and countries of the world in the plane of coordinates «Forest area – forest-land percentage of the territory» is formed. The level of integral indicator of the state of raw material potential of the woodworking industry of Ukraine and the countries of the world is most influenced by the component of «forest-land percentage», and among partial indicators are the following: production of commercial wood per resident, area of forests per resident, and forest stand per resident. Using cluster analysis (k-means), three clusters of countries of the world are allocated according to the integrated assessment of the raw material potential of the woodworking industry of the world countries. Calculations of the raw material potential of the woodworking industry of Ukraine showed the following: according to the integrated indicator of the state of raw material potential of the woodworking industry in 2019 (0.0847), Ukraine took 31st place among 36 countries of the world. The carried out cluster analysis showed that Ukraine in terms of integral components joined the group of countries with a low level of raw material potential of the woodworking industry; according to the comprehensive assessment of the component «forest-land percentage» (0.0365) Ukraine took the 32nd place; according to the comprehensive assessment of the component «timber resources» (0.1887) – 17th place; according to the comprehensive assessment of the component «wood production» (0.0445) – 33rd place; according to the comprehensive assessment of the component «commercial wood production» (0.0949) – 29th place.
