Abstract

Growth and biomass production of some Acacia and Eucalyptus species/seedlots planted in the Silvicultural Research Station, Madhupur, Tangail was studied. Results show that Acacia auriculiformis - 13499 and Eucalyptus urophylla - 13011 produced higher growth and biomass in comparison to other species/seedlots. Data reveal that encroached Sal forest areas in central and northern zone of Bangladesh may be reforested with these short rotation fast growing exotic species for the immediate supple of fuel wood and small posts etc.
