  • Economic and environmental effects of the ban on log exports in the CEMAC zone   Order a copy of this article
    by Mathieu Juliot Mpabe Bodjongo, Josué Kevin Fotso Mbobda 
    Abstract: This study aims to examine the potential economic and environmental impacts of a total ban on log exports in three of the six countries in the Economic and Monetary Community of Central Africa (CEMAC): Cameroon, Republic of the Congo and Chad. The results, based on a computable general equilibrium model (CGEM), show that the policy of a total log export ban is less economically beneficial than a log export quota, particularly in terms of: 1) the value of total output in the timber sector; 2) the value added in the timber sector; 3) employment in the timber sector; 4) tax revenue; 5) the income and welfare of urban and rural households; 6) real GDP. However, in environmental terms, the total log export ban is more effective than a log export quota.
    Keywords: trade barrier; timber; economy; environment; computable general equilibrium model; CGEM.
