Abstract

Maple syrup has been produced in the United States for centuries. This production has been predominantly in the northeast states. Recent studies indicate promising maple syrup potential beyond the traditional boundaries. This study assesses the economic impacts of potential maple syrup production in Kentucky. Using the input-output analytical framework, likely producer price is considered at three maple syrup production potential levels. At a producer price of $9.48 per liter, the potential total impacts range from 336 jobs and $6.2 million in output at the lower production level to 1356 jobs and $25.05 million in output at the high production level. The potential tax impact of the maple industry ranged from $0.39 million at the lower production level to $1.6 million at the high production level. These results demonstrate the potential of maple syrup production to provide economic benefits to the state through job creation and revenue generation. These results could be used as a basis for favorable policies to support and expand maple syrup production as a viable income source for woodland owners in Kentucky and similar maple producing regions.
美国生产枫糖浆已有几个世纪的历史。这种生产主要集中在美国东北部各州。最近的研究表明,枫糖浆在传统边界之外的潜力巨大。本研究评估了肯塔基州潜在枫糖浆生产的经济影响。利用投入产出分析框架,考虑了三种枫糖浆生产潜力水平下可能的生产者价格。在生产者价格为每升 9.48 美元的情况下,潜在的总影响从较低生产水平的 336 个工作岗位和 620 万美元产出到较高生产水平的 1356 个工作岗位和 2505 万美元产出不等。枫糖产业的潜在税收影响从低产量水平的 39 万美元到高产量水平的 160 万美元不等。这些结果表明,枫糖浆生产具有通过创造就业机会和创收为该州带来经济效益的潜力。这些结果可作为制定有利政策的依据,以支持和扩大枫糖浆生产,使其成为肯塔基州和类似枫糖生产地区林地所有者的可行收入来源。

期刊介绍: Forest Policy and Economics is a leading scientific journal that publishes peer-reviewed policy and economics research relating to forests, forested landscapes, forest-related industries, and other forest-relevant land uses. It also welcomes contributions from other social sciences and humanities perspectives that make clear theoretical, conceptual and methodological contributions to the existing state-of-the-art literature on forests and related land use systems. These disciplines include, but are not limited to, sociology, anthropology, human geography, history, jurisprudence, planning, development studies, and psychology research on forests. Forest Policy and Economics is global in scope and publishes multiple article types of high scientific standard. Acceptance for publication is subject to a double-blind peer-review process.
