Supply chain resilience in forestry and sawmilling focuses on maintaining a reliable flow of wood, timber, and fibre products against a background of environmental and market disruptions. As forestry relies on long-term growth cycles, its supply chain is highly vulnerable to climate-driven shocks like wildfires, pest infestations, and extreme weather, alongside sudden shifts in global trade and available labour.
