Pine Trees grow so quickly that they can be grown much like annual food crops. However, their growth curve is a little closer to a biennial or triennial, since the first year or two is required to gain height and girth.
This works well with the pine growers of my acquaintance, (especially West Florida where I was a teenager) because they wisely rotate their pine "crops": one field each year is slated for harvesting/cutting for pulp products, another is in mid-growth, and a third is new growth.
This along with recycling is an environmentally responsible way to keep the world's population in paper for writing, in the event that they run out of "bits & bytes." :}
