This paper quantifies the European and North American demand for logwood ( Haematoxylun campechianum) during the First Globalization (1870-1914), identifies its main suppliers and compares the magnitude and trend of the Mexican supply throughout that same period. Under this context and given the importance of the exports of logwood from Yucatan during the Colony, the main objective of the article is to analyze and trace the trend of exports from the Yucatan Peninsula to the main foreign markets in the context of the henequen export boom, and also, estimate the impact of the dye trade on forest depredation in the Peninsula. The research used historical series from different foreign, national, and local sources, for statistical analysis and export trends, and, likewise, historical records and reports made it possible to estimate the impact of human activity on dye forests.
