The effects of log export ban (LEB) policy and dynamics of global tropical timber markets
on the growth of Ghanaian timber industry were studied. The purpose was to follow the trend
in the growth of timber industry from ...
Amoah, M.; Becker, G.(International Forestry Review, 2009)
The need to develop instruments to capture the realistic stumpage volume and influence loggers to improve on their logging been a topic of interest in recent times. This study assessed the logging efficiency in Ghana and ...
The problem of stocking fish types to fish pond in the Ghanaian setting is highlighted and
addressed using a simple but powerful algorithm. A case study of matching fish types of specific
quality requirement to a given ...

In the absence of the widespread distribution of modern cooking fuels in developing countries, efforts are being
made to utilise biomass residues which abound in most of these countries. This is intended to replace ...
Lumber size control is an essential element in maximising yield and productivity because a small reduction in rough green target size could lead to substantial savings in wood fibre. One of the key components of rough green ...
One way of achieving a successful forest management leading to biodiversity conservation is to ensure that wood is processed in an efficient manner. The authors succeeded in developing a new technology for bandsawing using ...
The modulus of rupture (MOR) which is the key to the strength of oriented strand board (OSB) depends on the fiber orientation on OSB surface. In order to improve the quality of OSB products, it is essential to optimize the ...
This paper is the third in a series of work done on a novel technique for bandsawing, which uses a tip-inserted saw, and is gaining increasing popularity in Japan. It builds up on previous reports on the novel technique ...
This study assessed the effectiveness of powerful learning environments (PLE), developed in line with the specifications of the 4C/ID-model, and the additional effect of ICT for fostering the development of technical ...
One way of meeting the supply demands of the wood industry is through the reduction of waste in timber processing. It has been estimated in Ghana that for every tree felled, nearly 50% of the tree volume is left in the ...
Studies were conducted on reproducibility, and accurate measurement of moisture content of four wood samples using an electric moisture meter. Experimental results indicated that there was no clear relationship between ...
Productivity, surface quality, and recovery are three parameters that compete for attention during lumber production. The well known phenomenon of improved surface quality with decreasing workpiece feed rate has been ...
Forests are enormous energy stores for fuel. Global resource base and supply are currently diminishing due to rapid population growth. Their management involves schemes, which provide accessible alternatives and sustainable ...
In the developing countries most of the rural communities depend on forest resources for their livelihood. The establishment of protected areas and national parks however deprive them of having access to these resources. ...
