Tifnber supply curve derlvedfrom Table 7.The second supply curve also could represent the supply curve in a region inwhich lands with low cost timber were held off the market. Prohibiting timberharvests on sites with relatively low costs shifts the supply curve to the left forall higher costs. Table H.8 shows the supply schedule from Table H.7 recalculatedto reflect the removal of sites 1 and 2. Figure H.4 shows the supply curvederived from Table H.8. As a comparison of Figures H.2 and H.4 shows,policies that remove harvestable timber from the timber resource base generallycan be represented by a leftward shift in the supply curve from SO to S. asshown in Figure H.5. This is particularly true if low cost sources of timber aremade unavailable for harvest.PS Timber-poor regiona)CD*0 cis0 2-Da)0.U)oS Timber-rich region0)a-)Annual rate of productionQFigure H.3.
