Abstract: Planting of forest species of timber interest helps to reduce the deforestation pressure on the Amazon forest, promotes sustainable development of the producing region and generates ecological benefits. The objective of this work was to evaluate the survival rate and growth of four native (Swietenia macrophylla, Parkia decussata, Dipteryx odorata and Jacaranda copaia) and one exotic (Acacia mangium) species in monospecific plantations (spacing of 2 x 2 m) established on areas previously used for grazing, in It… Show more

“…Tree plantations have the potential to produce large quantities of timber on relatively small areas: timber plantations in Brazil, mostly fast-growing eucalyptus and pine, can produce 200-400 m 3 ha −1 of roundwood on 10-15 year cycles [65]. Such exotic species produce low-grade timber that is not directly equivalent to high-value wood currently extracted from Amazonian natural forests, but there is a potential to develop plantations of high-value native species [66,67], even though technical alternatives are still scarce in Amazonia [67]. Moreover, it is likely that with ongoing technological advances, future high-grade timber demand will be gradually substituted by less-valuable fast-growing timbers transformed into highlyresistant materials [68].…”

“…Monospecific plantations of four native species (Dipteryx odorata, Jacaranda copaia, Parkia decussata, and Swietenia macrophylla) and the exotic A. mangium established to restore pasture areas, have shown a decline in silvicultural performance e.g., biometric data, crown projection area, total height, commercial cylinder volume etc. of A. mangium compared to other species (Machado et al 2018). These authors did not recommend A. mangium for restoration because of its limited performance in relation to most of the variables that were assessed.…”

“…Programas de reflorestamento com essências florestais nativas de interesse econômico são fundamentais para diminuir a pressão sobre populações naturais (Scarante et al, 2017;Machado et al, 2018;Wilson et al, 2019), ampliar a capacidade de resiliência dos sistemas de produção (Locatelli et al, 2015;Kongsager et al, 2016;Bustamante et al, 2019) e adequar o espaço rural a critérios estabelecidos em acordos multissetoriais e na legislação vigente (Brasil, 2013(Brasil, , 2015Metzger et al, 2019. A escassez de informações consolidadas sobre desempenho silvicultural, como potencial produtivo, tolerância a estresses abióticos (Alves & Karvatte Junior, 2019) e exigências nutricionais restringe significativamente ações voltadas à conservação e ao uso econômico destas espécies (Nascimento et al, 2012;Machado et al, 2018).…”
