Description
Summary:AHMAD ZUHAIDI, Y. AND VAN GARDINGEN, P. 1999. Stand growth stru cture and yield of plantation grown Dryobalanops aromatica in Peninsular Malaysia: more than 50 years after planting. The growth structure and yield of three Dryobalanops aromatica stands established in the forest area of the Forest Research Insitute Malaysia in the 1930s are discussed. The species when grown in plantation can grow to merchantable size in about 50 years. It exhibits rapid height and diameter growth. The study is a first assessment of the stands with regards to the growth potential of plantation grown D. aromatica of almost 60 years of age. The results presented in the paper have to be used with caution, since they were obtained from unreplicated small plantation plots, which were designed as probing and not as formal experimental trials.
