Growth, biomass, and energy quality of Acacia mangium timber grown at different spacings

Abstract: The objective of this work was to assess the effect of spacing on the growth, biomass allocation, and wood quality for energy purposes of Acacia magium. A randomized complete block design was carried out with three replicates and five treatments consisting of trees planted at different spacings: 2.0x2.0, 2.5x2.5, 3.0x2.0, 3.0x2.5, and 3.0x3.0 m. At 67 months after planting, the following species parameters were evaluated: performance (mortality, diameter growth, height, bark factor, and bark and biomass volume… Show more

“…In an experiment assessing the production of biomass of A. mangium as a function of planting space, Tonini et al (2018) found a value of 26.4 tons ha -1 of wood produced with spacing of 3.0 x 2.0 m at the age of four years. That is the same spacing used in the present study, but the trees were one year younger.…”

“…A ocorrência de mesofilo isolateral, com parênquima paliçádico de duas a quatro camadas, como encontrado em Acacia mangium Willd, é considerada uma característica de espécies adaptadas as condições mais xéricas, de altas intensidades luminosas e temperatura (FAHMY, 1997). Essas características encontradas para Acacia mangium Willd podem justificar o fato da espécie se adaptar as condições de alta intensidade luminosa, quando plantada em área aberta, como mencionado por Tonini et al (2018).…”

“…Acacia mangium Willd (Fabaceae-Mimosoideae), natural da região noroeste da Austrália, Papua Nova Guiné e leste da Idonésia, é uma espécie heliófita de rápido crescimento e ampla variedade de adaptabilidade (JUSOH et al 2017). Apresenta alta tolerância a condições de estresse hídrico e deficiência nutricional no solo (REYES et al, 2018), sendo considerada promissora para o reflorestamento nos trópicos, com grande potencial para plantio florestal com objetivo de produzir madeira serrada, celulose e geração de energia (TONINI et al 2018). O plantio comercial da espécie desempenha papel importante na manutenção do suprimento comercial de toras, reduzindo assim a demanda de madeira da floresta natural (JUSOH et al 2017).…”
