The bottom line
Only about 15% of Pulp Mills is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.
Why: With no child occupations seeded, this scalar is derived entirely from the NAICS lens and description for 'Pulp Mills'. The core value-producing work—manufacturing pulp by mechanically or chemically separating cellulose fibers from wood, rags, and straw—is a heavy industrial, physical process, placing the industry firmly in the physical band.

Business-as-Code
Read as an executable program — the work decomposed into Code, Generative, Agentic, and Human.
Pulp Mills sits inside a larger value-flow — 1 parent structure it composes into. The hierarchy is grounding, not the story: it tells you which aggregate exposure Pulp Mills inherits.
Pulp Mills is itself composed of 8 parts that flow up into it — the sub-units whose work, summed, is what AGI capability re-prices here first.
