Vilsack stated, "The USDA Forest Service is using a multi-pronged approach to deliver support, technical assistance, improved policies, and financial incentives to facilitate and create diverse markets for the forest products sector. I understand the importance of the forest products industry and the critical role markets play for all forest products."
