Facteurs déterminant la productivité et la séquestration de carbone de Acacia auriculiformis A. Cunningham ex Benth. au Bénin

Abstract: Acacia auriculiformis est la troisième essence à croissance rapide la plus plantée au Bénin. Son bois, initialement destiné à l’énergie domestique, est de plus en plus utilisé comme bois d’œuvre. Ceci pourrait représenter une alternative durable à l’exploitation forestière des aires de conservation et contribuer à la séquestration de carbone. Cette étude avait pour objectif d’évaluer les facteurs qui influencent la production de bois et la séquestration de carbone des plantations de A. auriculiformis au Bénin.… Show more

“…Acacia auriculiformis is a fast-growing forest tree species used in plantations in Asia and West Africa countries including Benin, Ivory Coast, Togo and Nigeria. It is widely used in agroforestry systems and on degraded habitats to restore soil fertility, as well as to provide the necessary ecosystem services and wood for energy and construction (Fonton et al, 2002;Tonouéwa et al, 2019). Acacia auriculiformis wood is available (Tonouéwa et al, 2020a) and can be easily accessed in Benin (Tonouéwa et al, 2020a).…”

“…Acacia auriculiformis wood is available (Tonouéwa et al, 2020a) and can be easily accessed in Benin (Tonouéwa et al, 2020a). The tree has a fast-growing rate of 2.4 cm/year in diameter at 6 years old (Tonouéwa et al, 2019) and high physico-mechanical characteristics (Tonouéwa et al, 2020b).…”

“…The number of rings may be inconsistent with the age of the tree (Chowdhury et al 2009) and the determination of the radial variation of its wood is of definite interest. In West Africa, the species was introduced in 1980 (Tandjiekpon and Dah-Dovonon 1997) mainly for firewood production but also currently include timber prospects (Tonouéwa et al 2019). The species produces a wood with quite good characteristics (Hounlonon et al 2018, Tonouéwa et al 2020.…”
