Provenance Trial of <I>Eucalyptus camaldulensis</I> in Punjab

Abstract

A range-wide provenance trial of Eucalyptus camaldulensis was undertaken in Ferozepur Forest Division in August, 1982. Data collected about 3.5 years after planting has been analysed. Out of a total of 16 treatments, 8 treatments (provenances) were found to be significantly superior to the control (Eucalyptus hybrid) in terms of volume production. Most of these provenances with the exception of Lake Albacutya are from the northern latitudes of Australia with latitude below 26° S.
