Forest botanical products are a subset of special forest products but have special requirement for their disposal as indicated in the 2004 Appropriations Act. Those requirements have precedent over the rules for special forest products. Both special forest products and botanical forest products include many culturally important materials such as medicinal and subsistence plants, basketry materials and other traditional materials. Special forest products also include nonconvertible woody debris. Forest products are convertible materials, sawtimber, pulpwood and non-saw log material.
