Abstract
Abstract The emerald ash borer will likely impact over four million acres of Minnesota's forests in the next 10 years. This study surveyed forest products company representatives and other natural resource professionals to understand their perspectives on the current and future use of ash in wood markets. Survey respondents indicated they were only slightly optimistic that there will be new and emerging ash markets to support the large volume of ash wood potentially available in the next 10 years; however, new technologies such as torrefaction and heat treatments were noted as potential new markets for the species.
