==Background== The Jari project was a brainchild of US [[entrepreneur]] and [[billionaire]] [[Daniel K. Ludwig]]. In the 1950s he noticed that demand for paper was rising. Since the forests of the [[temperate zone]] were already in use, the supply of the wood pulp for paper was fixed. Ludwig foresaw a future increase in the price of paper due to the increase of [[mass media]]. Since most of the natural forest timber was not suitable for paper production, Ludwig planned a site where the natural forest would be replaced by a tree farm. It would have to be started decades ahead to supply the future paper production.
