Why is there no "British Firewood Association"?

I thought this document from the states was really interesting. It looks at how dry you can expect your wood to become in various parts of USA and world dependent on weather in area month by month.

Thanks for the replies and comments. However I was meaning more of an association of producers though, not so much a regulatory body (all you need to prove is you don't sell foreign timber). It just seems that there is no voice for firewood producers in what is a large and growing industry, but maybe there isn't need for one?

Funnily enough last week was 'Grown In Britain' which is all about promoting home grown timber (obviously!) and they are running an accreditation scheme which would hi light that your selling uk produced logs, but would cost you and like FSC is probably not worth it for small producers to join and like FSC is the average punter really that bothered?
