Earlier Report Observations

The market volume for non-coniferous sawnwood in Timor-Leste fluctuated significantly between 2018 and 2023, ranging from a low of 241 m³ to a high of 407 m³. Domestic production remained steady at 300 m³ annually throughout the period, meaning all changes in market size were driven by variations in import and export activity. The market began at 300.2 m³ in 2018 and grew over the next two years, reaching 366.7 m³ in 2020.

A sharp contraction occurred in 2022, when the market volume fell to 241.0 m³. This was primarily due to a combination of sustained imports and a substantial increase in exports that year. The market then rebounded strongly in 2023, surging to 407.0 m³. This recovery was facilitated by continued imports and a complete halt in export activity, making more material available domestically.

The overall volatility highlights the market's sensitivity to international trade flows. The stable production base of 300 m³ provided a consistent foundation, while import and export decisions caused the total available volume to swing by over 150 m³ during the six-year span.
