Notes:
- The sum of the regional totals do not equal the national totals because some owners have forests in more than one region, particularly in the 1000+ ha category.
- The number of owners of forests less than 40 hectares is as at 30 June 2002, from Statistics New Zealand, 2002 Agricultural Census results.
