Variable Density Yield Tables of <I>Dalbergia sissoo</I> (Plantation origin)

Abstract

Dalbergia sissoo is a species of great economic and commercial value. It is raised both naturally and artificially. Variable density yield tables of the species (plantation origin) have been prepared to facilitate proper management. Data from sample plots laid out in Haryana, Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh were collected. Relationships between various crop characters Were determined using multiple rerression technique. Results of analysis have been given. Tables based on these relations have been prepared for crop characters such as height, diameter, basal area (main crop), total wood volume (main crop) and total wood volume (rhinning). These tables are by 5 year age classes from 10 through 50 years for different densities and three site index classes.
