Abstract:Bracatingais" are common forest formations formed by bracatinga (Mimosa scabrella) and secondary species, which have replaced bracatinga over time; these forests are an important source of income for small farmers. The objective of this study was to model the growth and yield volume of firewood per unit of area and to evaluate the dynamics of the stock across the years. Data from 320 plots were used to fit 12 mathematical models separately addressing the data for bracatinga and secondary species and total spec… Show more
