Edition 2 · field guide and worked cases
The State Department for Forestry FAQ attributes FCMA 2025 §60 forest-product permits to SDF. Whether gum Arabic/natural gums and this route qualify remains unverified; obtain written classification and permit direction from SDF. No KFS issuer direction is made.
The worked examples are planning illustrations, not a forecast or guaranteed outcome. Replace assumptions with measured records, dated quotes and written buyer terms before committing capital. The existing workbook is included unchanged (10 sheets).
