Earlier Report Observations

Strict environmental regulations and the Forest Act 2076 implemented in 2019 significantly constrained timber extraction in Nepal, leading to a steady decline in coniferous roundwood production from 55 643 m³ in 2018 to 53 013 m³ in 2023. These measures, designed to promote sustainable forest management and reduce deforestation, directly limited the volume of wood available for the market.

The market contraction persisted through the period, with annual decreases of around 1%, as policies excluding forests from wood production remained in force. In 2023, the government's continued emphasis on climate‑change adaptation and green investment frameworks, such as the Nepal Green Finance Taxonomy, reinforced the focus on sustainability over volume expansion.
